Green rosella

Home sick with a virus. going to see the doctor later. finally saw a different bird in my garden yesterday. These are fairly common in Tasmania but I don't seem to be able to get many pictures of them

Great Capture. We have them too, but hard to photograph. I hope your trip to the doctor helps you get well again soon :) Thinking of you!

@kgolab thanks, assuming I have the parafluenza virus my husband had... just probably need to wait it out - but getting script for antibiotics just in case I am well stocked with things to make me comfortable :)

Wonderful clarity, light and focus.

Horrible being sick, but the bright side, you might not have got this lovely shot had you been at work

[Ulrika]

@yorkshirekiwi ha ha yes.. to doctor wanted me to have more time off but I will try go back tomorrow.. don't want to waste my sick leave - it's been handy in the past to have some saved up - It is a virus and I will live ;)

Hope you come good! This is an interesting rosella - lots of yellow.

What a beauty, we don't see them here in NSW. Hope you feel better soon.

@onewing thanks x they are a Tasmanian bird from what I have read... Not sure if they are on the mainland at all...

[Ulrika]

@hrs thank you!

[Denise Wood]

Thanks for your lovely comments and sharing of our wombat story - I truly appreciate it :) I don't know how I haven't been following you - I usually return the favour! And specially as you have beautiful birds and many other wonderful captures! So now it's a definite fav & follow :)
