New-ish diagonally-over-the-back-fence-bar-one neighbour....

Last couple of weeks,with the warm weather forcing windows to be opened,we have been introduced to our neighbour diagonally over the back fence one house down...or rather her voice.
It could blister paint at 30 paces.
She has taken to competing with the lorikeets,screeching at them to "SHUT THE F**K UP"...personally I'd rather the deafening sounds of drunken parrots on a fermented fruit spree than her whispering sweet nothings...or swapping with Dino and Joe for the Kelly Clarkson Warbling Twins !
Tonight she was discussing with her better/pitied/scorned-by-all other half the merits of ordering a pizza before she "lost the f**king plot with those f**king bastard birds and those f**king pricks of f**king people who f**king grow f**king trees "...I was impressed with the number of f**ks she could fit into 1 sentence whilst holding that screeching-fingernails-on-the-blackboard tone of voice...AND just how well she was embracing living in the green leafy suburbs !
After that I of course went and bought some wild bird seed and proceeded to fill dishes with it around the yard....refilled the many water dishes I have for birds/chooks and also popped out some extra fruit and rose petals for the possums(they scream delightfully when partying,in summer,at 3am)...am going to build a possum/parrot nesting box to hang in the gum tree(which accidentally happens to be close to her side/back fence).
The next door neighbours ,on both sides,have trees and have no intention of not putting out din-dins for the birdies....*sigh* oh dear I think this is going to be a loooooooong learning curve for living happily with nature ! LMFAO
