In Xmas colours all year round

Uploaded: December 22, 2006

Description

This King Parrot wearing his Xmas colours, is one of about 8 I feed. This one is the tamest & calls out in the bedroom window if I am a bit late getting out with the food. Taken on Auto, hand held, on full zoom, in my front yard 10 minutes ago. Wishing you all a Merry Xmas, enjoy yourselves, laugh lots & take lots of good pictures.

Great shot. You are lucky to have it in your yard. I only get rosellas here. I hope you and your family have a great christmas too! #576171

Yes, I feel very lucky to have them come in & I purposely don't get them to use to me, for their safety. A few lorikeets have started coming in now. I have been looking on the news, I see you were lucky to have only lost some plants. Have a good one!!! #3730947

What a fantastic shot of this parrot, Chris! Such a nice friend to have in your yard. Are parrots noisy and loud? I've never had the experience to see them, other than bird zoos and sanctuaries. I would love to have them in my yard too! We have plenty of song birds, which I do enjoy so much. #3732800

Next to the major Mitchell parrot, there are my favorites Chris! This is a great capture, I love it!
I hope you and your family have a very Merry and safe Christmas.

Thank you all for your kind remarks. I enjoy feeding these birds as much as I enjoy them calling me for being late. Happy holidays to you all. #3738250
