Trying to Stay Dry

We copped a drenching today and were amused by these lorikeets trying to seek some shelter by perching as close as possible to the trunk of a tree outside our kitchen window. Love how they are sitting up so straight to reduce the area exposed to the rain and how the one on the middle branch is trying to get additional shelter by being directly under the one above.
Two of them spent just about the whole day cuddled up in the corner of the kitchen window sill.

Whilst your weather is really crap, they are indeed a lovely bright and colourful distraction :) FAV

@terryliv YES!! After doing 31 days on a dwarf flowering gum, I could bloody well do anything!

Poor little things! Great pop of colour though.

Lovely composition lots of lovely detail and colour Terry, must say they do look a little wet, particularly like the tall image format and the way you have captured the background rain:)

Magnificent! I can only agree with everyone else!

The poor drenched things, they just have to be thankful it's not winter! Nice capture.

These are so colorful to see in the wild. Poor drenched little birds.

Hang in there Guys! (What colorful decorations your trees have.)

Amazing burst of color!! Poor things seem so sad to be all wet up.

Ok, those don't even look real. I know they are but that is just amazing to me.

Sad looking birds, not much in the way of shelter.

Love the way they are just sitting there one above the other....they would be soaked..

Poor wet birdies but what a great shot!

If only they had a few heads to sit on.

Gosh, they would have copped lots of rain.
