I was given an hour or so ago a "escaped diamond finch". I reckon it's a baby spotted pardalote (and therefore not escaped at all).

Who agrees with me.....

I'll give him some Spark and some of my insectivore soft food mix pending the next step.

OK, so what's needed to keep him alive long term. Do I just call WIRES?

They seem to be in such big numbers around here at the moment that people are asking how to get rid of them ...no hanging pot is safe .
I wish I had them hanging around ...
