My farm is truly blessed

Pied Butcher Birds
I call them Hekyll and Jekyll. They have been here
for three years and have the loveliest song, that's
when they're not screaming at me to feed them. If
I ignore them for a while they will sing to me with
their sweet voices.
They are meat eaters and are very friendly and
cheeky. One morning the builder was here working
on my deck. I was talking to him totally ignoring
these two. One of them flew squawking into the
dining room, through the lounge and out the front
door where he returned to the deck and continued
squawking at me. The builder was flabbergasted
and said only "Did you see that?" I replied "Yes I did,
I suppose I'd better feed them."
