Yesterday afternoon and the rosellas are still munching on the spent crepe-myrtle seedheads, what are left of them. It quite amazes me how long they will spend eating them, at least an hour at a time; I don't know where they put it all.

Adorable! The video was great. Thanks Carole, they are a very pretty bird.
Its very colorful, I love it....
Nice job on the video. They sure are beautiful birds, and oh, so hungry!!
Every color on the palette was used for creating this bird it seems. Do the boys and girls look the same?
John, the red on the male is more intense (deep-red) than the female
They are such colorful birds. Fun to watch them eating.
What a fabulous shot! I really enjoyed the video!
Obviously crepe-myrtle seedheads taste delicious - this rosella is savouring every munch. A great capture Carole.
Beautiful photos Corale.
The video is also superb.
Great that there are these birds in the wild, here only seen in the zoo.
Carole, your Rosella is just beautiful. Love the photo and the video! Have a great day!
love the video ... so neat! what a gorgeous bird. all those colors. wow, such a show-off. ( :
Incredibly colourful! Just about the only place they could successfully hide would be in a botanical garden...or maybe a quilt show.
Your video is amazing. They must be really hungry !
Best regards, Synnöve
