The female gang gang was very noisy and swooped me a number of times (i didnt knie they did this?)
As i thought I was bothering her, I left the area but she followed me to my back gate. She chatted with me for a little while, inching closer. She looks healthy, and her red headed mate was never more than a couple of meters away.

Thanks I suspect some-one is feeding her and that she was expecting food from you
