Dropping by

Frequent visitors to our garden are the colourful and raucous rainbow lorikeets.

Quite a large group arrived to tuck in to some sunflower seeds.

A bit of squabbling over getting a spot on the feeder.

Coral tree flowers are a favourite source of nectar for the rainbow lorikeets too.
We have several of these large trees in our yard adding a splash of red amongst the (almost) bare winter branches.
Hope you enjoyed today's post,

Purple Swamphens

Regular visitors to our garden are the Purple Swamphens.

They particularly love to stop off on their way through our yard to have a dip in the birdbath.

In sunlight, their plumage shines with an intense blue sheen.

Another one joins in for a dip.
I just love watching the antics of these colourful birds.
