Very nice neighbor! I feed the birds in my backyard here in the states, and a squirrel and chipmunk!

We consider ourselves very lucky to have him/she visit.

Some info about them for those interested. They range from about 11" to 17" in length. We often have them sitting on our clothesline early morning and late afternoon/ early evening waiting to catch their dinner. They eat worms and other grubs from the garden. They have a rather loud "laugh" which wakes us most mornings in the summer around 4 am - somehow we do not share their humour at this time of the day.
