Hi,
I'm Sarah. l'm in NZ trying to set up a bird feeder for someone who has just moved to Groesbeck in Texas.
Looking to establish a bird enticing garden, and also attract birds with a feeder so he & his indoor cat can watch from the window.
But l don't know where to start! I've read all about Texas birds, but l guess l need to find some Groesbeck birding friends.
If anyone wants to talk NZ birds i'm happy to share what l know. I'm not a hard core birder, but l've loved them since l was a wee girl, l have had feeders wherever l have lived, and have lived all over the country.
I've also lived in England, Northern Ireland & France; and l spent a month in South America - half of which was on the Galapagos islands. My favourite place on earth.
That's me.
Hope you're all safe + vaccinated + well. It's a scary world right now.

This is Harvey the Tui in mid angry shriek. He lives in the bush around my house. Harvey comes when l do my bad tui call impression, except, unlike the other tui who just show up or not; Harvey shows up and does mating display behaviour. Every time.
He used to be called Pervy Tui, but then we got a new cat who is a scaredy cat and rarely leaves the house. Wilfred the cat is my shadow. And Harvey hates him. As soon as he spots him he yells an angry call and dive bombs him.
He calls his friends to join in.
Very rarely can Wilfy + l sit outside on the deck for more than 10 minutes without Harvey showing up and ruining it.
Harvey (Weinstein) Tui is why we can't have nice things.
