Galahs are so commom in my part of the world that most people don't photograph them, I really like Galahs and no other bird can fly the way an exicited Gahlar can.

I have always enjoyed photographing Gods aerial marvels.

Nice shot.
I know what you mean. They fly like they are on drugs. Crazy birds :)
Must be something they eat :o

So is that like your version of a pigeon? If so you are lucky.
Nice picture. I like the color and sharpness.

No mate we have rats of the sky too (pigeons) Galahs are probably our most common parrot. Them and Little Correllas flock in their thousands during summer. Very noisy and messy as they strip tress of foliage.
