(Himantopus leucocephalus)
 This red-billed gull (Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae) rested on my car, clearly hoping I would have food when I returned. I didn't.
 This time he found the cats' tennis ball and had a good game with it.
 We inherited a number of souvenir tea towels so I made them into cushions.
 I was in the garden and Alfie was cautiously exploring the territory on our side of the fence. He played with me, but I wasn't invited to pat him yet.
 New Zealand dotterel (Anarhynchus obscurus) checking me out. It was a beach where the birds are used to the presence of people who usually ignore or don't even notice them. This one realised that I was watching it.
 Bella (right) took exception to the strange black and white cat that turned up. There was a lot of growling and other antagonistic noise but eventually the stranger rolled over and yawned and Bella backed off, slowly and carefully.
 It was a dreary winter day with some cold rain but the little shag (Microcarbo melanoleucos) was still out fishing.
 Rani had a half-grown rat bailed up (just to the left of her out-stretched paw). I went out to see what was happening and so did Simba.
 Simba watching the 1% club on TV. Yes, it's a terrible photo - a grab shot in low light with no flash - but I liked the humour of it. He was responding to the bright light and movement on the screen.
