The 65 trick is not quite normal here O/S 'Wink, wink" thou the end result is the same etc this year. Normal to take 3 rounds as such but being on the lazy side now, I mated up a few spares & decided on only 2 rounds. Cheers. |

Nothing I like more "smile, smile" Hal, than a man that believes in quality (banded 7) etc. Here I just finished banding my 2nd round as such & finished up with 70 odd "cry, cry cry". Cheers. |

| Have 40 bands. Probably will use them all eventually. Too many old birds so they will get pushed this year. |

Breakfast/birds & my normal useless waffle here etc. Waiting on the missus now to get out of bed & give me my duties for the day etc. Yesterday she had me up on the house roof putting up shade cloth on the back pergola for enjoyment. Cheers. |
