These Rainbow Lorikeets arrived in the Mango Tree located in the council paddock behind our house and had a bit of rough and tumble before taking a drink from the bird bath.:-)

Cheers

Excellent capture!

Here's one (juvenile) I prepared earlier. March 2021, East of Hay, NSW.
I did not know what it was at the time.

Nice one!

This guy experienced a glide slope failure on approach, almost overshooting the bird bath.:-)

Cheers

Thanks Ulrike, it's great spot at high tide at this time of year, especially late in the day with the sun and breeze behind you.

It is! I actually went earlier in the week but the tide was still out and so were the birds. Next time! ;-)a
