Just The Neighbours

These guys have been raiding the fig tree next door and seem to be getting used to my presence to a certain extent. They've been particularly cheeky and flying low and swoop past on their trajectory into the trees.

Fine Feathered Friends

 Out the front yard tonight, the ususal crowd scrabbling for dinner. Noisy , messy things they are! These screechy little rascals make a real racous noise and skit from tree to tree in no time flat. I took over an hour (playing in the traffic whilst I was standing out on the road) to capture these guys. I took lots of photos of half a bird..no sooner had you gained focus and they would move onto the next branch or tree. I really would love to get a shot of on of them in flight - coming in for a landing - they really look quite spectacular. Anyway I have culled the photos down (I could have added more) but you can get too much of a good thing. I love this first photo because these guys look so chummy....whispering sweet nothings into each others ear! Anyway enjoy my colourful friends and the trees they play in.
