Galah in a pose I didn't expect.
If any Aussies Can ID the second bird I'd be pleased, the only thing I could find that was anything like it was a Grey Whistler but I'm not at all sure.

I shouldn't have posted it if that's how it looks to others. Sue

I just think they are a beautiful bird, I was watching a nesting pair for a short while just yesterday. I'll second what Steve said about the other, looks to me like a female Golden Whistler also but I'm not certain. Only other bird that comes to mind it may be is a female Gilberts whistler.
