Every morning the other half puts a line of breadcrumbs and any rice leftovers we have on the grass at the back of our garden. He's had to be careful about where he puts them because we use to get greedy seagulls coming over making a mess on peoples roofs and creating lots of noise. At one point we found a letter in our letterbox from one of the neighbours asking us to be careful which was somewhat amusing.
Each day it seems we have regular visitors. The photo above this is of a male Tui who sits high at the top of our neighbour's palm tree singing for a mate, each time I go to grab my camera he flies off so I've had to be really quick. This one above is one of 3 thrushes that come up to our bedroom ranch slider when we first get up. They stand there and look at us as if to say "hey, where's our breakfast" - they seem such friendly things.

Re your question about the ships, they were fishing ships. The harbour changes everyday depending on which ships come in and go out.
All the best Jan
