@Adge I've planted bottlebrush and gravillia to attract birds to my garden. I've only been here for a year so they are small atm. And only becoming acquainted with the locals.

My partner and I moved 2 weeks ago, and yesterday I saw a couple of galahs on the nature strip of the place next door. Where we used to live, we saw a lot of galahs and cockatoos.
My favourite bird of all time is the eclectus parrot - they are just so beautiful! If I could have one sitting on my finger or my shoulder for a while, it would make me so happy.

They are delightful @Former-Member and @Maggie utterly beautiful. A bit like rainbows, one cannot but smile when one sees a rainbow in all it's glory.
Thank you all for sharing. @Shaz51 lucky to have such delightful visitors. @Adge we had a blue budgerigar when we were quite young, friendly little thing.
No birds here to get photos of though. Have a lovely tomorrow.

Good Night @Former-Member I was supposed to be asleep as I have an early rising.
Take good care of you while I am away. You do a lot of good on the forum.

@Former-Member Aren't they gorgeous!! I love the colouring of them, especially the females.
No new bird sightings lately, although we do get a few doves around here, which one of my cats love to watch - I think he'd chase them if he could! We have heard a kookaburra here, but I'm not sure where he was.
I haven't seen that bird before! It is beautiful though.
