Description:

A pair perched on a power cable above our garden. They had a great view of Whanganui city centre and the river, but it being such a cold morning (1st of the season) they seemed to be more interested in the approaching sun light. After a while (20 mins) in the sun they became more active and left. One of the pair, the smaller one, was more alert than the other one. Other birds such as starlings did not cause them concern, but a passing Myna had more of an alert.
