Aaaand................just a little politically incorrect to describe :
The Reclining Buddha - as a ' lazy lady '.

That could be taken to be a little politically incorrect!!
Or not, after all the Buddha did manifest in female form, and, as shown here, is reclining, so the title "Lazy Lady" wouldn't be entirely out of place, one would imagine...
A flower for you, Buddha to be...
(Which is, I believe, the appropriate salutation, as Namaste is a Hindu salutation. Who would've known? ha ha).

It's been about ten days since the blue wrens have been past...
I'd pretty much settled on not seeing them again until the end of next Winter - once they've eaten everything else, everywhere else, then my little patch of land gets the treatment, ha ha.
But we're taking about blue wrens,they're a law unto themselves, ha ha.
Dad wren turned up on the fence, more front than a row of houses, more bottle than United Dairies... ha ha.
Closely followed by Mum wren, and...
It's a new addition... Or should I say She's a new addition...
The young boy wren had a blue tinged tail, and her tail is definitely not blue tinged....
For the time being I'll assume that she's a girl, but who knows...
She's literally half the size of the adults...
Yes, they make them that small... ha ha.
She hopped up onto the fence between Mum and Dad to see what all the excitement was about...
And the introductions, such as they were, commenced -
"This is Person, he lives here, you have to mind out for his feet...", ha ha.

I put in a ramp down from the roof to the bridge that runs more or less past the kitchen window.
Another way to get onto, or off, the roof? We like it!!... ha ha.
The cockatoos liked it, too, and to try and reduce the amount of squabbling amongst them - My ramp! No! My ramp! I put in a second ramp...
Again, a very well received idea, even if it didn't reduce the volume or amount of squabbling, ha ha.
But it's not all about the cockatoos... ha ha.
On the right, on the broader ramp, there's Mother possum, and on the left, little Three possum...
I suppose that putting food on the bridge, at the bottom of the ramps only makes it more attractive... ha ha.
It's a strange sight, the pair of them coming down the ramps like large hairy caterpillars...
The bridge is wide enough to accommodate them, should they decide to step off the ramps, but no, they're possums...
They have to cling, somewhat precariously, to the ramps, and eat...
It's only when they've managed to devour about half of what's there that they'll move into a more comfortable position.
I knew I made the bridge that wide for a reason - it's so that Mum can sit down and get some serious eating done, and little Three can still squeeze past her, looking for any morsels that Mum has missed... ha ha.
(And from there it's a short journey across a bridge and down a ramp to... Oh! Look at that! a big table with food on it! ha ha).
They're spoilt, undeniably, ha ha.
