No parents around that I could see but I had a hairdresser appointment...</P><P>I rang Wires while there, and they put me on to the local Fauna people - the man said he would come after he finished work this afternoon to get it (before the local cats do)</P><P>Well!! While we were trying to get it into the net this afternoon the cheeky thing suddenly decided it actually COULD fly! The Fauna man said it was flying well enough to get away from cats - and I have heaps of native flowers out for its food at the moment so they left it.&nbsp;</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Just hope I don't go out to a pile of feathers in the morning .</P> Tue, 10 Feb 2015 06:39:31 GMT b3llag1na 2015-02-10T06:39:31Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517609#M387679 <P>After several hours during the week clearing and cleaning up a messy garden my day started like this <IMG align="middle" border="0" alt="before and after 002.JPG" title="before and after 002.JPG" src="https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/58369i8649DD04DC5A0A33/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;px=-1" /></P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:44:13 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517609#M387679 freddie*rooster 2014-09-19T06:44:13Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517613#M387680 <P>and this <IMG align="middle" border="0" alt="before and after 004.JPG" title="before and after 004.JPG" src="https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/58371i0F46CEF7A2CFCC02/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;px=-1" /></P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:45:30 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517613#M387680 freddie*rooster 2014-09-19T06:45:30Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517617#M387681 <P><IMG align="middle" border="0" alt="before and after 009.JPG" title="before and after 009.JPG" src="https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/58373i1EDB49757E0F092E/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;px=-1" /></P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:46:14 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517617#M387681 freddie*rooster 2014-09-19T06:46:14Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517619#M387682 <P>wow, what a diofference!!!</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>well done Freddie!</P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:47:02 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517619#M387682 fiestas*girl 2014-09-19T06:47:02Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517623#M387683 <P>I have potted plants to put in yet <IMG align="middle" border="0" alt="before and after 013.JPG" title="before and after 013.JPG" src="https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/image/serverpage/image-id/58375iCDC2C0072D524C31/image-size/original?v=mpbl-1&amp;px=-1" /></P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:47:39 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517623#M387683 freddie*rooster 2014-09-19T06:47:39Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517625#M387684 <P>&nbsp;</P><P>You have been a very busy girl, well done, it looks amazing.</P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:48:44 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517625#M387684 shepherdsrule 2014-09-19T06:48:44Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517627#M387685 Freddie ... why did you RUUUIIIN it?<BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR /><BR />Lovely job <span class="lia-unicode-emoji" title=":winking_face:">😉</span> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:47:57 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517627#M387685 katydidthat 2014-09-19T06:47:57Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517635#M387686 <P>Could this be an ongoing thread - My Day .... achievements from others, whether it be gardening, painting, bringing up the kid's, or just getting out of bed LOL</P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:50:47 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517635#M387686 shepherdsrule 2014-09-19T06:50:47Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517639#M387687 <P>What a great idea gottbe....</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Thanks for the compliments it was a good day.</P> Fri, 19 Sep 2014 06:52:07 GMT https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517639#M387687 freddie*rooster 2014-09-19T06:52:07Z https://community.ebay.com.au/t5/Community-Spirit/My-day/m-p/1517643#M387688 <P>Looks very nice now, freddie.
