Mes Loriquets arc-en-ciel

À ce moment de l'année, pas seulement les couleurs de Noël, mais les couleurs de l'été on peut voir partout.
Ces Loriquets à tête bleu, (également appelé Loriquet arc-en-ciel) dans le jardin, sembleraient beaux sur le Sapin de Noël, mais hélas ils ne se tiendront toujours pas assez longtemps pour être attrapés ! !

My Rainbow Lorikeets
At this time of the year, not just the colours of Christmas, but the colours of Summer are to be seen everywhere.
These Rainbow lorikeets in the garden, would look beautiful on the Christmas Tree, but alas they will not stand still long enough to be caught.

Ce sont de beaux oiseaux, Benaut.
Les seuls oiseaux verts que je peux voir dans mon jardin, à part les petit Verdiers, sont les gros pic-verts qui ont du rouge sur la tête.
Bonne Année Benaut !

The magpie in the foreground is one of last year's babies - it still has some grey on its chest and it's beak is not fully white. Soon it will have to leave the territory but for now, it enjoys the sunflower seeds.
The olive coloured bird on the right at the back is a baby rosella, yet to get it's turquoise and red and orange colours. The bird at the rear centre is also a baby rosella which has begun to get its colours around the throat and above the beak.

Lovely photo darling.
