Meet Heckle'nJeckle

We have a family group of about 4-6 pied butcherbirds that live on and around our property. Because they all look alike they have a collective name: Heckle'n'Jeckle. There are a couple of teenagers getting about now and they are just as cheeky as their parents. They will often perch on the railings of the back verandah and serenade us with their whistling in case we might relent and throw them a morsel or two.
