High at the top of the palm tree these three Corellas between them can make a fair bit of noise, you can see one of them is probably screeching at me to hurry up with breakfast....! Corellas are a type of small white cockatoo (more), but unlike other members of the subgenus 'cacatua' they have pale beaks....They travel around in big flocks, landing to forage for a while then the word gets around and they take off all together, when they land in my back garden it's quite a sight, I never get tired of seeing them and they are so used to me now, I can walk through them and they just carry on feeding.....!! Happy Sunday.....!!
Grace - I can't even imagine seeing these guys in my garden let alone walking amongst them! Incredible.
ReplyDeleteWhat gorgeous feathered friends you have! I would love to have these guys come visit me. But, I guess that is a little too far to fly.
ReplyDeleteI love that first photo. Nice little visitors you have there.
ReplyDeleteQuite the group portrait but in your garden? We have a few gray doves and pretty red cardinals but nothing like this.
ReplyDeletehow wonderful!

Lovely, top foto great!
ReplyDeleteHa! Great shot....They are both listening intently to the guy on the left!
ReplyDeleteMu buenas fotos, me gustaría tener un lugar como ese para disfrutarlo haciendo fotos.
ReplyDeleteBuen domingo
Un abrazo.
What a sight! Very occasionally we get a flock of sulphur crested cockatoos just before the fruit on the trees ripen but never these corellas. Great colours in the top photo. The sky is just so blue.
ReplyDeleteYou live in such an exotic place!!! :-) Pigeons is all I get... :-)
ReplyDelete(Just finished a phone conversation with a friend in Auckland, she said it has snowed!)
I love these birds, always so comical to watch.
ReplyDeleteHappy Sunday to you
Estupendas las fotos, como siempre.
ReplyDeleteSaludos y un abrazo.
Delightful.
ReplyDeleteDo they crap a lot?
ReplyDeleteI'm in awe at the top shot. Fabulous image! Lucky you.
ReplyDeleteThe top photo took my breath and the bottom one made me smile.
ReplyDeleteBon dimanche,

Thanks for your kind comments on my recent CVDP shots. The top shot of the birds is gorgeous with their white plummage and blue sky.
ReplyDeleteThat must be some sight seeing all those birds in your yard! But the first photo is amazing! So pretty :D
ReplyDeleteHow I would love to see those beautiful creatures in flight and at rest. Yesterday I saw a woman walking down the streets of Santa Fe with one perched on her hand. Unusual. Great photos!
ReplyDeleteLove these guys! They seem to be having a great chat!
ReplyDeleteWow, they are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteMuch better than 'my' dirty pigeons and nasty gulls!
ReplyDeleteCute! In South Florida we had big flocks of screeching little green parrots! I like these better!
ReplyDeleteWhat a stunning shot of the birds, Grace! The first one almost looks like a painting (of three birds at a party!)
ReplyDeleteBises,
Genie
They're so beautiful!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad to know they live free to go wherever they want. :)
I like your 3 models!
ReplyDeleteMust be fantastic to have them in your garden.
Love the top pic Grace. The big flocks of these birds flying about are amazing. Have a wonderful week.
ReplyDeleteOutstanding. We have robins, cardinals, warblers and other common birds and are happy enough to have them in our yard. Remarkable to discover cockatoos in your yard.
ReplyDeleteThe 1st photo is wonderful !!
ReplyDeleteYou are so lucky to have these beautiful birds right in your own backyard!
ReplyDeleteHow cool is that? To have them visiting your garden every day. Can't see it happening in London:-)
