Rosella

Autumn, and it's now that old flowering heads of the crepe-myrtles are turning into a great food source for the Eastern Rosellas.

    Hi Carole,
    what a beautiful colorful parrot I see. Is that your parrot or just fly it in your garden????
    Kind regards, Helma

    Hello Carole what a beautiful bird this is.
    These are not found in nature in the Netherlands, only in the zoo.
    Kind Regards, Irma

    Beautiful rosella. Many years ago I had at home Rosella (Platycercus adscitus).
    Pls, excuse me my English, I use the translator.

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.
