Posting a bit early today because I am going to do more research on my family history this afternoon.
Lockdown means I can't get out much and we only have a 5 km limit to travel away from home at the moment.
This is the last of my garden birds for the time being, hope you have enjoyed this series.
These two little corellas were happy to just chat while I took their photo. They are gorgeous birds and such characters.
Until a few years ago we didn't see these birds at our side of the bay. They appeared after a massive bushfire on the other side of the bay at Myall Lakes National Park and Tea Gardens that raged on for a week. All the birdlife escaped over to our side of the bay including the little corellas and they have never returned.
How beautifully captured, they are really gorgeous! Funny how they escaped and came over to your side, lucky for all of us. I loved your birds and am looking forward to more in the future.
@happypat Lockdown itself isn't too bad Pat because both David and I have lots to keep us occupied, where it gets difficult is that lots of our friends down here in the bay live alone and we aren't able to see them. We keep in touch by phone though but I think some of them get pretty lonely.
We were due to be released from lockdown soon in regional NSW but a few days ago 2 Covid cases were found in Shoal Bay and Salamander Bay and that number has now increased, so no reprieve from lockdown until the end of October now I believe.
We can only travel up to 5 km from home at the moment too so the highlight of my week is the occasional visit to the supermarket. We do have a couple of lovely beaches to walk on pretty close to our house though, so not all bad.
These lockdowns really make us realise and appreciate the freedom we normally have , Great twosome , eating at your table - what lovely blue rings around the eyes !
I’ve looked at the whole series of the birds, and WOW!!!! What a blessing you have! Your birds are so exotic, and I love that you actually KNOW them!!! Please entertain us again with them!

We in New South Wales are doomed

They gather together in trees at sunset and make quite a din I can tell you.
