Beautiful - love the light! Looks like your visits to FD have been successful. Went last Friday and thought there are fewer and fewer birds around. It certainly looks quite different during the dry!

today the fully coloured male Superb Fairy Wren was doing the rounds on his own
He wasn't hanging about though and moved through quite quickly

I was taken by how tiny the specks of colours are on him
This shows a fleck below the eye and above there's a few flecks on his wing

Thanks Ulrike! It is surprising how well they blend in to their surrounds.

Lovely shot, and parrots and cockatoos are my favourites. So much charisma and personality.

Crimson Finch starting to get its colors. I think once this Crimson has all its colors will be an unbelievably striking bird...... if not already .
