Camouflage except for the red.

The musk lorikeets have been having a wonderful time in my sister's flowering gum trees. They were hard to spot to photograph except for the patch of red and their noise :)

Beautiful, fav

[Lady Magpie (Heather)]

Great capture and I must be honest and say I didn't see the bird at first. Good camouflage but it's a bit different from us Magpies, we just flap our arms around and make a lot of noise. FAV

[Denise Wood]

@Weezilou Ahh! yes Louise, I just had a look and that was the very cheeky rainbow lorikeet known for their antics! This one is the musk lorikeet who is very shy and steers clear of humans :) Thanks for all the visits and comments!

[Mrs. Laloggie]

I was so busy looking at those white gum tree flowers that it took me a moment to see the bird. Wonderful photograph!
