King Parrots

Just outside the building I work in is a tree with seeds that King Parrots obviously consider gourmet food.

The male parrot is flashy with his red head and belly.

This is either a female or a juvenile. Both images are cropped from larger ones, hence being a little grainy.

Morning light

Early sunlight slanting through the trees, with the mist over the paddocks in the background.

Perhpas it’s the weaver in me, but I do love the sight of spiders’ webs highlighted by dew, visible in the early sunlight. This small tree had many of them!

(You’ll notice I said I love the sight of them – as well as the delicate beauty, being able to see them avoids the unpleasantness of walking face-first into one!)
