Dear Syd

I have one in my kitchen but it has English birds on it - a present from my London-based bird watching son. The good thing is that when you hear the bird, you know what time it is - you don't have to listen to the number of "dongs". And it doesn't work in the dark.


Is nothing sacred?  An unwanted mail-order catalogue in our letter-box today
includes an adv. for a "Bird Clock" - "Hear bird calls on the hour!"

Hours represented by paintings of Australian birds.  Kookaburra top centre.
And "Bird sounds from 8AM to 7PM".  First bird-call not until 8AM?
Disgraceful!  (But at least they "can be turned off by removing battery")

Syd
