Not so exotic I suppose but there were a lovely lot of birds from all over the place.

Someone is getting the evil eye it seems, and that someone could be me. He/she just flew up landed on the branch and almost dared me to take the shot.
Although reduced for web viewing this shot is not cropped.

They are galahs. A cockatoo. Very clever and intelligent.

Parrots are simply wonderful.

Nice Sergeant stripes or whatever the rank is.

Nope.

Carrying my laptop out to the deck is too fiddly.
(although I did do it for the snow pictures 2014/15...I suspect a bird may fly away )

I do have a digital camera somewhere but way too involved and almost impossible to hold steady when clicking.

There's a cardinal, well a pair of them, but one of them is fire engine bright red. They've both been flying around the block the last week.

It walked along the neighbours fence as I headed out to pick the little up from dance class.

Teasing me as I didn't have my camera.

They scarper the second they see me with my camera but hang around for ages when I don't have it.
