morning Lorikeet

morning Lorikeet
On our travels in New South Wales, Australia.

Saturday challenge... signs of Autumn.
The changes of the season are not very evident here, quite tropical. The native Rainbow Lorikeets are loving the nectar in the Callistemons, which are flowering profusely.

They are surprisingly well camouflaged, and disappear easily into the foliage.

Be still my beating heart. Oh MY what a spectacular picture of this spectacular bird! My husband and I were amazed to find out how common these stunning birds are--at least in Sydney and Cairns! Everywhere! We just loved seeing them.

Your picture is wonderful...super dof, sharp focus, perfect composition...just GRAND!!

Thanks Janet. We are blessed with such amazing native birds. When they are engrossed in feeding, they don't hop around quite so much. You still have to be patient to have the right focus.

Wow, Gillian, what a beautiful capture! If only our springs/autumns were this colorful! I love your shots in the comment, too! :-)

Gillian Everett club has replied to Valfal
Thanks Val. The birds come when the callistemons flower, and they do that a few tims each year. These were almost trees, amazing display of flowers and the lorikeets were pretty active the whole time we were there.
