Cool, but after seeing this and the previous picture maybe the birds have you in their front yard.

Is Guy correct?

This bird reminds me of our Cardinals in that they are both red and sit in bare trees like that. They are a welcome bit of color in the cooler days.

Yes Guy is correct. Although these Rosella can be found everywhere, both in the "burbs" and in the bush.

This is the adult version of Helen's [Juvenile] (http://www.panoramio.com/photo/13537070). They get these brilliant colours when they mature.

What a beautiful bird. I see you have lots of bird shots in your gallery - I will keep looking.

Thanks Cal, I am glad you are enjoying my bird photos. I do love taking photos of them. Have you seen the Black Swan photos yet? M.

M, thanks. That link isn't quite right, but I copied and pasted. Helen's photo is great too and shows a different view. Almost like a different bird! Our cardinals are red all over. And much smaller. Well the males are red. The female cardinal is brownish.
