Last week on two consecutive days a Red-browed Finch fluttered along in front 
of us as we walked along the same stretch of our drive.  While it did not 
pretend it had a broken wing I am sure that it was leading us away from point A 
(no nest found though) to point B.  Is this behaviour common?

Did not see where it went on the first day but on the second day it disappeared 
into/under the foliage of an agapanthus a metre off the road.
