Hello, I hail from Invercargill in the deep south of New Zealand. Amongst my photographic pursuits, I like to study the behaviour and antics of the birds that visit my garden every Winter. In order for me to have greater numbers attracted to my little woodland area, I put out feeders, fruit and sugar water and add convenient places for birds to congregate.Most days I have a mix of our native birds, from the SilverEye or Wax Eye as it is commonly called.This blog is about these birds or rather one particular individual that I noticed visiting. Once you see the photos,  you will see why I chose this as my subject. I hate to see any creature maimed or injured and a little damaged bird leaves one feeling quite helpless.
