Walked out the door to see some movement in the tall palm out front. A pair or Rainbow Lorikeets, so what to do but try take a couple photos before the light fades away;

1. What do I spy


2. Better get the big gun out and a monopod, a pair of Rainbow Lorikeets


3. Feeding on some palm seed it seems


4. Thought these guys did fruit only


5. Seems they like some seeds too

Thanks. Those were taken with an A-700 with a Tamron 200-500. Pretty good lens for BSOB shots. (Birds Sitting On a Branch) :-)
Just for fun.
