Rose-ringed Parakeet
Thanks very much for the comments on the flight shot of this bird. I've no idea what the orange berries are, but the parakeet seems to like them, or at least think them worth checking out.

Thank you for your comments, stay safe and well.

Apparently, to the parakeet, they are delicious (lol). Excellent subject, setting, colors, and feather detail. Quality work John! TFS!
