Despite
going for long walks with her owner and sometimes attending an energetic Boot
Camp , Nora ,
a cheeky Jack
Russell , just gets
fatter. Why? Because
Nora often scatters
flocks of Lorikeets and Curlews being fed by the kind German
Queen of the Jungle , just down
the road, and hoes into the bird
food , which is actually dog tucker, so is very tempting . Nora ,
in search of a snack ,
her nose to the ground , invaded the Curlew sanctuary in our backyard and was
chased away. She
is shown , not far from the latest nest, with two eggs , confronted by a Curlew . The defending
Curlew walked about in
threatening attack mode
, wings outspread, ready for a shoot out , for a long time just
in case greedy Nora
returned for seconds.
The two chicks evicted by the parents to make way for the next batch have joined a large band not far away .They turn up from time to time for a feed but are quickly chased away by their parents.
