I think the Lorikeet is praying!

Ok. After at least 1 million photos this morning, I think I managed to salvaged 15 shots that were decent. This is one of them. I was praying to the Gods that I could take a photo of the fast moving Lorikeets's that are eating my flowering gum to death.....and I think that they were praying to their Gods that I would stop taking photos of them. I'm not sure who won this battle. What do you think?
