Handsome Sunbird (Aethopyga bella) (external link) by Paolo Dolina (external link), on Flickr

A tiny bird of wooded areas from the lowlands to the mountains. Has a fairly long, curved bill, a white belly, an olive wing, and a yellow patch on the back. Male has a yellow throat and chest, a purple ear spot, and a purple mustache stripe tipped with green. Note the green forecrown and pointed tail. Male somewhat resembles Metallic-winged Sunbird and other similar species, but Handsome has a red face and back. The drab female is similar to many other species, but is tiny and relatively short-billed. Voice includes a high-pitched jumbled song and a repeated sharp “chik!”

I find photographing Kinglets really difficult, they just don't stand still. Finally caught one napping which made it really easy for me.:lol::lol:

This is a Sulphur-crested Cockatoo taken at the Oxley Creek Common near Brisbane.

It is one of the largest of the several species of beautiful white cockatoos and is a highly intelligent bird.:-)

Cheers

Dennis
