Birds

While my hubby and I were walking through a park close to home we spotted these lovely rosellas. Fortunately I had my new camera and telephoto lens, so got these great pictures.
The orange and blue bird is an Adelaide rosella, while the small green birds are musk lorikeets.

Also spotted were Willy wagtails, kookaburras and white cokatoos. More photo opportunities for me as spring approaches. I'm hoping the rosellas will make a nest in the tree hollow.
