Waiting for the apples to ripen

A New Holland Honeyeater in the apple tree today :)

Must be a fussy bird not to be eating them now.

Wonder, those apples look delicious. Do you have to pick them early, before the birds ruin them?

[Sheralee S]

It's a honeyeater and it eats the apples? They do look delicious.

[Joan Robillard]

Beautiful

[PhylM-S]

Nice and clear! And that you caught him near the apples is super!

[Denise Wood]

@onewing Still very green!
@deborah63 last year there weren't many apples but 2016 was a whopper crop which i happily shared to get lots of photos :)
@s4sayer @rickster549 He was a bit ruffled as he was showering in the sprinkler below :)
@louannwarren I'm actually happy to share them as there are 3 trees - but sadly I'm about to leave here before they are ripe!
@bella_ss Good pick up :)

[babbs]

Amazing! Beautiful photo!

[Margaret Snell]

Lovely shot, beautiful bird but wouldn't he prefer honey to apples?
