How to catch a Little Kingfisher. First train spiders to spin super strong line ... Nah. See bird on bridge wire. Shoot dud pictures today against harsh morning light (the rain stopped Monday: sunshine ever since: who sez season should change with equinox?) Start to delete pictures. Notice strand appearing to tether bird. Sneaky wee bit of cloning adds to illusion.
It's a little better than Brown Falcon caught briefly from rolling car yesterday.
And much better than Bar-shouldered Dove caught at start of flight early in week.
February counts: 91 bird species in Tyto: 89 in 2009; 94 in 2008.
Last word: Telstra and Tyto Tony tangle and tango no more. tonyashton1 AT bigpondbastards DOT com loses a digit (bit like Frodo in a way) and gains freedom as tonyashton0 AT gmaildonoevil DOT com. May the satanic $249 modem melt in the fires of hell, or Mordor.

Good luck with the new net gear and mail. You persisted with the old ones much longer than my patience would have held out.
