Spotted Pardalote (Pardalotus punctatus)

[i]Pardalotus punctatus[/i]

One of my favourite little birds, packed full with colour and details, they're so delightful. I had the pleasure of holding one once after it flew in through my car window while I was driving.

Not the best photo, but the best I've managed of this species to date as they usually stay high the canopy.

A lovely shot of this beautiful little bird Azzy. :clap: It's also a favourite of mine, and one of which I have only a few photos. They're not into modelling for photos at all, so any shot is a bonus. ;)

Good shot Azzy. Only ever managed to photograph them in the hand while banding.
Well done

I can see why it's a favourite - how beautiful it is.

A lovely shot Azzy.
