What a wonderful capture here, Pat...and I like your superb use of selective colouring(?), too!! It's always a treat seeing kooka's in our garden, isn't it?!! There's a few local ones who are starting to get used to us, and now we can get reasonably close (the last time about 3 metres away) to them!! :o) #8767782
