King Parrots and Crimson Rosellas

37 Comments

These king parrots seem to tolerate the two crimson rosellas at the left of the photo (sent by Leslie from Australia). I’m not sure what would happen if there were a shortage of seeds on those brick pavers, but as long as there is enough for everyone, there doesn’t seem to be a problem sharing.

Bright and beauteous, that we are,

Folks admire us from afar.

If they put down seeds for us,

And come closer, we won’t fuss.

    Nice to see them share, but I imagine, in time, a pecking order would be determined. Happy Wednesday Anneli. Allan

    We have pretty birds and striking birds, but no really colourful ones. These are amazing. So beautiful.

    A lovely poem, too, Anneli.

    Pretty birds! Seed warfare always seems to have a way of working itself out.
