A new species for me..thanks.
I like they way they've learned to deal with Pinus radiata cones. Let's hope they have an impact on that oversized weed.
Oops Large, thanks Mark,
We do seem to be getting a lot more recently, it's good to see
Great shot. Love these guys. It seems their numbers are building slightly around here. (Large for 'arge'? :)
