I love this theme! It amazes me how many different species of birds exist.

Below is my entry. I think it's my most prized photo (other than every single photo I have of Jack). I practically wet myself when I spotted this fella . They're so shy, I didnt even realise they were in the area.

I'm so jealous! (And I can't find an emoticon to show that.) The Aussies can take photos of some absolutely gorgeous wild parrots that the rest of us have to buy or see in a zoo! I'm going to go and sulk and pout in my room while I look through my red tail hawk, cardinal, blue jay, woodpecker pix to see if there's anything that would compare to a group of toos or a lorikeet.

Heres a secret....Got any hummers....they will compete with their birds

We just moved beginning o June and the garden in the new house isn't exactly floral which is something I'll have to remedy next spring.

I'm trying to attach a photo I downloaded to my wildlife album here but have found that I'm non literate to do this. Can someone please help if this doesn't work? I'm trying to download photo 210 which is a juvenile red tail hawk with dinner, taken 06/24 @ 3:55 in our back garden.



And yes, I'm afraid that is a wascally wabbit.
