Warn me? I don't think there's anything you could tell me about him that I don't already know.

on a related note..... I'm open to questions... so if there's anything you want to know about him, ask away. ;D

Yes, there are. Sadly, Paul's isn't one of them.  :(

What is yours? It looks kind of ferret-ish.

Did Paul ever tell you about the time he was going to burn the muskrats out of their hole? This was back in the time of the wide leg Wranglers. :)

Or how about when he went out back to collect the eggs and ended up throwing them all at the cows who followed "chased" him home? (note I said cows, not bulls)

After I have a coffee I can probably think of a few more.  :D

That's cool. I guess you figured out pretty quickly that if you give him a fancy title you don't have to pay him.  :D

Yes, completely ferret-ish in a possum sort of way.  ;)

I am a bit late on the plant ID you guys have it covered, ;) just thought i'd let you know we call them Silk Trees as well, but our Mimossa is an invasive native pest that has large spikes. Wendy we have a lot of different varieties of Australian parrots that breed on our property and we have nine Silk Trees around the house, I put the odd branch with flowers in with our captive Kakarikis and King parrots.

One of the people on the Bird Forum is from Down Under as well, and he's posted some pics of wild parrots in his yard. What might seem everyday to you is pretty amazing to those of us who live in an area where a bird with a bit of red on its wing is considered colourful.  ;)

I had heard of silk trees... like I said, I considered planting one but really didn't have anywhere to put it. I didn't realize they were mimosas.

 Them stinkin Parrots are decimating our Carambola crop. Tree is too big to throw a net over >:( >:(
