Backyard birds

Here's a few pics of Rainbow Lorikeets taken in my backyard.     They're colourful but very noisy birds, so I don't make it a habit of feeding them too often.

I'm going to put a few nesting boxes in my tallest Eucalyptus trees in the hope to encourage Eastern Rosella's to make their perminate home in my back yard. There are a few taking advantage of the hollows of the street trees but those trees are so old and horrible that their days are numbered. Rainbow lorrikeets regularly fly through.

Galahs are probably the most entertaining of my parrot visitors unfortunately I haven't got a pic of them hanging upside down fron the powerlines.

When I clicked on the thread I was expecting maybe birds of paradise so what a great surprise. They are beautiful and what great photos of them. Truly rainbow colored and so vivid. Definitely brightened my morning.
