We gave fishing a go but were sorry to say that no fish took to us. Maybe if we had a boat? I heard that there was a fishing day on just before we got there and they were catching HEAPS, maybe the fish just got smart?!
But when fishing isn't working... don't be disheartened you can still CATCH something...
Here is Daddy teaching the boys how to lay the trap. A bucket, stick, rope and a drop of bread.
There were about 30 of these screaching birds from the second we landed here in paradise. No nice song from a magpie to wake me up, just these squarking things! Maybe I should have made black bird pie.
One of the many successful trappings. BB had it down pat by the end and was SUPER impressed that he was pulling the rope at the right time and catching them all by him-self. He was even more excited, if that was possible, when he managed to catch 2 at the same time...
The boys took turns to release their prey back to their family.
They sure did have fun and NO BIRDS WERE HARMED IN THE MAKING OF THIS POST!
