The New Holland Honeyeaters are going crazy in my backyard at the moment. I found one reason why this was happening - there are a couple of apples left on the tree that I can't reach - but they sure can :)
How lovely that nothing goes to waste! With so many fruit trees in our CA yard, It actually makes me happy to see some has been enjoyed by backyard visitors. (Well, I DO with they'd leave all the avocados alone!)
Love the name of this beautiful bird - it's markings are so pretty. Really nice shot to catch him attacking that apple. Love the colors and the way his eye shows up.
Well, it's always nice to share with our bird friends!!! LOL My birds eat my blueberries, plums and figs ... along with the ants and bees and other critters. I think they think we planted them for them!! LOL Just love how far the bird has his head in the apple!!! They must be some really good apples!! Awesome timing and capture!! Instant FAV!
