The miromiro welcomes me home

Today I finally felt well enough (and had the time) to take a gentle walk partway up the No. 1 Line track. The animals were pretty quiet, but after I'd been sitting quietly for a few minutes, this little miromiro (tomtit) turned up. It looked as if it had recently fledged, and it had almost no fear — a couple of times it came close to landing on the lens. I felt welcomed home.

Well, I won't clutter up your lens, Pete, but welcome home from me too!

Always nice to be welcomed home.

Thanks Avus!

Zhoen, it certainly is — especially when the welcome's from something as delightful as this.

I'm glad you feel better. And there's no better greeting than to be welcomed home by a young whippersnapper!
