We have new visitors in our back yard Grevillea. A pair of Pale-headed Rosellas. I've been wanting to capture these birds for a while as I came across one on a recent trip out west but I couldn't get close enough.
Thanks to my 20 year old daughter who noticed these Rosella in our yard, I was able to get my camera, change lenses to the "stalker lens" and capture a few shots...
They sensed me watching and moved to a more protected part of the tree, still keeping an eye on me...
Later in the afternoon, they came back to the tree and I was able to capture the entire bird. They are beautiful and quite colourful.

Brawo dla Ciebie, że udało Ci się "złapać" aparatem tego ślicznego, kolorowego ptaka. Pozdrawiam.
Well done to you that you were able to "catch" the camera, this lovely, colorful bird. Yours.
They are beautiful birds, great photos! Thanks for sharing your Rosella.
I sure would be excited to see this beautiful bird in my garden! Very nice photos!
Wow, simply GORGEOUS birds and images!!!
Great photos of the Rosellas. That's another one I still have to photograph successfully.
The big flocks of migrating shorebirds are back but I haven't been able to get out and photograph them yet.
Thats a cracking bird to have in your back yard - I'd have to move north to be able to see these.
Its also great to have a second set of eye to point out the birds!
