Hello there, folks. Can anyone help with this enquiry about Firetails?
Not being one of my local birds (we "only" get Zebra Finches)I'm unable
to help. Thanks
Anne

Ta!
Now to which one.
Perhaps you can help me with the disappearance of the Firetail finches over
the last few months. This year past is the first time that I have had small
amount of feed out for them and they react with a bike wheel sculpture that
Ihave made and it is easy ti see them at feed from a distance when the
wheel turns. In the past I have only really noticed them around the summer
months - when wire weed sets seed for example, and perhaps they go bush to
nest ??
Regards Kym
