Wax Eye Bird

This cute little bird is a New Zealand native.  They are so cute & have little white feathers around their eye which gives them their name Waxeye - or Silver eye.  Josh saved this little one from the jaws of the cat.  

   It made itself quite at home, first on Josh's knee, then his head.  Josh spent a couple of hours with it thismorning before releasing it again - and even then it stayed sitting on his hand for a while before flying off.
