·New Holland Honeyeater.
We get up to twenty sometimes in the birdbath near our patio. Fantastic flyers and it's interesting to see the social hierarchy between them.
Little wonder I didn’t have a chance on that one! I wonder how long it has been since one of these birds accidentally found its way to the prairies of western Canada! Like………..never! New Holland, yes! Alberta has a largely agrarian economy. Lotsa New Holland farm equipment.

·A watched pot never boils (I think)!
Thread:
The note A on the treble clef = A
Omega deVill = WATCH
Mr. Ed the talking horse = ED
Large earthenware pot = POT
Latin Numquam = NEVER
Boiling kettle = BOILS
Ergo: A WATCHED POT NEVER BOILS

Ashleigh Denistoun Banfield, a Canadian-American journalist
I’ll let our other puzzlers piece the clues together (especially the aerial view pic)

··Melbourne AustraliaBeing from the sceptered island of Old Blighty, this person eludes me, but given the obvious first name, and a bit of internet sorcery, I think I can offer a name.

Woo Hoo! Great solve.
I was shooting for Ashley Deniston Stopfield, but as it didn't make sense too me.
So my thinking was;
Fire/Ash
Lee Majors
Dennis the menace
Town (abbreviates to "ton")
Stop (but actually "ban"), couldn't twig it.

··Melbourne AustraliaNo way, you won fair and square as they say.
I was still going down the wrong road. Only one true winner on this one.

Good solve @Charlemagne1333 . I continue to be amazed at the resourcefulness of those of you who continue to play this game. I remember Ashleigh when she was a junior anchor on a television station here, over 30 years ago. She was a stunner! She has done very well for herself, I’d say!

·I’ll have another shot, being as the Aussies are asleep, and @Canuck ’s probably busy…😉
Again, I’m not familiar with her, but the clues lead to Marjorie Taylor Greene
Margot Robbie
REE Automotive
Tail
Oar
The Green Party
We have on or two nutters in the Houses of Parliament, so you’re not alone 😁
