Greetings All
Alas and alack!
Fay and I were birding Pioneer Park [central Nanango] and only just managed to
get back home for 1830 hours [6.30 pm]. While Fay put on the kettle I switched
on the television ready to watch “Hello Birdy” -only the “idiot box” was, for
some reason, tuned into Channel 10. My thumb moved across the control panel
[Fay assures me channel-surfing is a purely male obsession] to locate ABC 1.
In that moment I noted that the screen was showing me a snow-covered mountain
scene: I have a long-standing passion with mountains – no doubt something to do
with all those Snow Buntings I failed to see in my halcyon days. I then
recognized the dulcet tones of David Attenborough and I was hooked. Fay is one
with me on the question of “Hello BIrdy”.
To improve matters further, at 1930 hours [7.30 pm], on SBS, there was a tiger
program!
Today’s television guide informs me that Attenborough will be back next
Saturday and that the tigers will be replaced by leopards.
So its “Goodbye BIrdy”, hello effective wildlife documentaries.
Cheers
Julian
