Back yard visitors
I have had some visitors to my backyard to feast on my fruit trees. I snapped these before my dog chased them away.
Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I´m not so sure about the universe.

Lorikeets, not Rosellas.
Lorikeets are the cheeky multi coloured ones, not shy of just about anything, chase most other parrots. Great favourites around gardens as they will line up for a free feed.
Rosellas are blue and red, shy to humans but very aggressive to other parrots, seem to go around in ones & twos.

They look like Rosellas to me... Eastern Rosellas. Crimson Rosellas are blue and red. Originally Posted by bsrlee

We also get a small green Lorikeet, Crimson and Eastern Rosella's, Corollas, Cockies (White and Yellow tailed Black ones) Not bad for a suburban backyard in Melbourne's outer East. Originally Posted by bsrlee

Very nice. I have a Pentax K20D DSLR, but unfortunately the Rosellas round here don't pause or fly at an altitude at which I could snap them.

As Fred says, post them somewhere else & link to them but don't make them too big or somebody will grizzle & then they get deleted. Originally Posted by Phil Spencer
