And the winner is….

on January 16, 2012

Well, the ‘Where’s Willy’ competition was a great success with 89 subscribers rising to the challenge of attempting to find and count the Willy Wagtails in the wattle tree pictured in my last post. It was a difficult game and, one by one, 86 people had to give up but they should be commended for trying.

Out of the three final entries, it was Magsx2 who submitted the correct answer and I quote:  “I cannot see any wagtails. :lol:

Her prize is a recommendation that you follow/subscribe to her blog and here is the link:

For the other two courageous entrants, your prize is a virtual hug.

And for the 86 who tried, I’d like you to know that I know that you didn’t really try did you – you simply deleted the post; you are all to be commended for your extraordinary wisdom.

Now, the story behind the picture is this: There were several Willy Wagtails frolicking around in the branches of the wattle tree both before and after the photo was taken. This is typical of their devious behaviour and, to top it off, I was dive-bombed by two of them as I abandoned trying to get a photo of them, so there must be nests in that wattle tree but I can’t spot any – can you? No, let’s not go there!

  1. There’s at least one of us who wouldn’t know a Willy wagtail if it flew up my nose 🙂

    Hi,
    I just couldn’t’ believe it when I clicked onto your blog, and there I was, that is just unreal, yes I am still laughing. 😆
    Thank You for the prize of being mentioned

    I didn’t realize wagtails attacked, I thought the only ones to do that was those terrible magpies, I have learned something new today. 🙂

    I was going to say I can’t see any but thought that must be the wrong answer … so there you go … amazing allocation of time …
