Not often I get these guys visiting the garden, but this one turned up yesterday for a look around

the raised crest in the first one sets it off well.

I think the square crop suits the 2nd also.

good work

[Sully]

Terrific capture Alan

[Alan]

Thanks you two He didn't come back today.

Beautiful birds and beautiful photos Alan. If he didn't come back it's probably because you didn't pay him enough!

Great shots. I particularly like the first one. Well framed, delicate tones and the background sets off the crest very well.

[Ironwood]

2 lovely shots Alan. I know they are a menace to some, but I love seeing them.

Thanks again. We used to have a lot of them at Wamboin and they were a bit destructive if you didn't feed them. I don't want to encourage this one.
