Hedges Pet Household

Hello to all Mum's blogger friends; this is Ambrose. I'm back after another break. Mum says she's struggling with Outerweb and I couldn't post last week.  

We are all well and happy in the Hedges Kitty - and doggy - household.
 I found a nice grey blanket in Mum's room
 Next morning Mum said I'd been sleeping on Skabby's blanket! 

On the veranda, in the daytime, Mama sleeps in Skabby's bed! 

Chappie always finds her spot away from the maddening crowd

TO ALL THE PETS IN THE WORLD, YOU KEEP YOUR YOOMENS SAFE AND WELL NOW, OK?

Amethyst sunbird and other critters

Good afternoon blogger friends. At last I have decent Internet and can post!

A few weeks ago I posted about a female sunbird;  I said it was a Southern Double-Collared Sunbird female. Margaret (Birding for Pleasure) issued a friendly challenge for me to photograph the male.

I rose to the challenge and this morning I managed to photograph the male - but it is ANOTHER sunbird, Amethyst Sunbird. And the female I posted two weeks ago is the Amethyst female sunbird.
 Amethyst Sunbird - female 
 Topsy turvy sight of the male - just had to show how agile he is! 
 He moves so fast - apologies for the blurry photo

A safe day to you all!
