The Locals

One last bird photo for now and it is back to the garden for this one.

I took this a couple of days ago before the rain came. Had quite a downpour last night and much needed.

I have to put seed out in three different places in the garden because this pair who we call 'the locals' don't share with anyone and chase other birds off until they have had their fill.

@kjarn Yes we have enjoyed the rain for the last couple of days.

@casablanca Yes they are so cheeky and in cafes they take the sugar packets from the tables, split them open with their beaks and eat the sugar. Quite a party piece.

[Annie D]

Gorgeous....I love the lorries who visit our garden....we don't put seed out as the grevilleas, bottlebrush and eucalypt provide them with nectar 😊

[Kathy]

Such colorful birds.

[Elyse Klemchuk]

I like to see these colorful birds! Especially on a day like today in Chicago- it is 5 degrees C (41F), grey and raining.

[Vesna]

This photo is on Top 20 Chart. Congratulations!
