Almost unseen, the ubiquitous rainbow lorikeet blends perfectly into the trees and flowers. As this week starts out with cool winds and wet weather it's a cheering sight to see them.
Beautiful! And what a feast for him. What tree is that? The blossoms are beautiful. It looks like it could be a Mexican fern tree but I didn't know they had blossoms like that.
They seem to be masters of camouflage ... It's usually not until I hear the fluttering in the bushes that I notice their pretty finery. That's a beautiful vibrant piece e of shrubbery.
Now this is a sight that would warm the cockles of your heart on a wintery day Al, they're so bright and beautiful these little lorikeets, i love it when they fly into my garden to feed,
Stunning tree Al, looks like a member of the MImosa family perhaps which I have seen with fluffy filament type flowers but not with bunches of fruit. Wow. I didn't notice the bird until after I double clicked the picture and I thought my eyes were pretty sharp. Nicely done. Paul

Lots of color here. We don't have birds like this in my neck of the woods.
Sometimes unseen, rarely unheard !!!

Iconic Australia to me.
