Working for their dinner..

 

I'm pretty lucky to have these guys fill in for me on days when I don't get out and about with my camera, I make them work for their dinner :) Sitting on the lawn yesterday afternoon the birds, galahs, corellas, doves and rainbow lorikeets came so close to me that I could have reached out and touched them. I hadn't noticed before that the rainbow lorikeets hop about the lawn as if they are on mini Pogo sticks, comical to watch. Apart from a flutter of wings here and there they feed in companionable silence, we could learn a thing or two. Happy Wednesday, take care and stay safe..

  5. Your birds over there are so colourful. I have to say not all our birds get on together, they can be quite violent, A friend the other day told me a Magpie killed a sparrow on his lawn! Keep safe Diane

  7. I am a little surprised to see so many species so close together. I am not sure that would happen in the wild.

  12. Oh, sooo beautiful, Grace, never expected the difference in size so "big", though.
    Yes, we truly can learn from them, we have to. How about a movie scene of the pogo dancers some day?

  20. A GREAT SPELL CASTER (DR. EMU) THAT HELP ME BRING BACK MY EX GIRLFRIEND.
    Am so happy to testify about a great spell caster that helped me when all hope was lost for me to unite with my ex-girlfriend that I love so much. I had a girlfriend that love me so much but something terrible happen to our relationship one afternoon when her friend that was always trying to get to me was trying to force me to make love to her just because she was been jealous of her friend that i was dating and on the scene my girlfriend just walk in and she thought we had something special doing together, i tried to explain things to her that her friend always do this whenever she is not with me and i always refuse her but i never told her because i did not want the both of them to be enemies to each other but she never believed me. She broke up with me and I tried times without numbers to make her believe me but she never believed me until one day i heard about the DR. EMU and I emailed him and he replied to me so kindly and helped me get back my lovely relationship that was already gone for two months.
