    This beautiful bird was munching mulberries while I was chatting with the the magpies and butcherbirds. He called out to me, but would only show me his head for a sec before ducking back in the thick branches. I grabbed the camera and gently spoke to him for a few minutes and he came out and posed.

    Pass the chainsaw

    A rainbow lorikeet displaying to me to force me to back off it would have been a good pic except for the tree. Win some and lose some.

    At the feeder in my garden these have become very approachable and will eat out of my hand. Is that cheating to be able to get that close to a wild bird?

    A pic of one of the many lorikeets that live in my garden. Not such a good pic with the vegetation getting in the way but the feather definition was good.

    I went out thos morning looking for something more interesting, but all I could get was this. Beautiful birds but they are introduced to Perth and compete with native species.
