A birding Christmas greeting

On a cold July morning at a bird sanctuary in Victoria, this charming King parrot was happy to be chatted to and pose for photographs.
 

To my blogging and birding friends, thank you for stopping by my blog throughout the year; your comments have always been so enjoyed and appreciated.  Best wishes, Peace and Happiness.

thanks for visiting Snap Happy Birding, and for leaving a comment; I can still see them. Now both my blogs are resting in idle mode. It was time to give other things priority, even though I miss my regular blogging and the feedback that came my way over the years. Take care.
