It was quite a busy morning at the bird bath in our back garden, the Rainbow Lorikeets were in a good old frolicking mood. :-)

The one on the left came crashing in, hit the incumbent on the nose and a bit of a stand off ensued. :-)

Cheers

Thanks Mike, I used to believe they had complete mastery of flight, allied with competent landing skills, but it seems they do suffer the occasional crash bang whallop touchdowns. :lol:

The thunderbirds are flying in tight formation over your house? The hawks are flying in tight formation over mine...

(They were WAY up high, and I'm hoping to get them at closer range.)
