Arrow marks position where galahs were (you'll see at bottom of this post) |
It's a tree where I've taken photographs of various birds, parrots, cockatoos, from this window position, even on branches higher up. At the bottom right of this photo you can see the wintering crepe-myrtle tops where I'd snapped the female rosella the other day.
This photo taken from a lower pathway in the back garden looking over the tibouchinas, and up to the tree.
This one I kept just to share the moment, as the galahs flew to the sliced-off hole in a limb, which had eventuated from council-workers on a cherry-picker some years ago, when they were severing 'dangerous limbs'. They put on quite a display of bobbing up and down and cleaning out the hole, singing out; quaint parrots they are. Pink and grey is an eye-catching combination!
Fun sighting. These parrots look almost like candy!

Gorgeous birds! It looks like they have pink coloration. The second photo with the flowers is beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThese are amazing birds Carole! How lucky you are to have this sort of bird just flying around. Incredible!
ReplyDeletesuch cool birds! i bet they were neat to watch!
ReplyDeleteIt is good for someone every once in awhile to present you with a photographic challenge. At least you got that one shot so that I knew what a galah was without having to Google it.
ReplyDeleteCome see for yourself, you'll see the "CCC" is truly a magical place ;-)
ReplyDeleteBeautiful pictures...
