Willie wagtails are Aboriginal messenger birds, I know this because an Aboriginal friend told me when I had seen one jumping around on my driveway seconds before I was informed that an Aboriginal friend of mine had passed away. Freaky!!

Two willie wagtails jumped on the pathway in front of my dog and me when we were out walking. That day I found out that Sharon was losing her battle with breast cancer and my mum was unwell.

A willie wagtail was on my letterbox on the day Sharon told us she only had a few weeks left. At the wake a willie wagtail danced on the table where my friend and I were sitting.

Yesterday I was out hosing the back garden when a willie wagtail hopped onto the fence. What?? again??? No!!!! I gave that sucker no eye contact and by accident he may have been hosed a little……. enough!!
