[Photos] Wildlife - A profusion of birds (Mainly parrots).

[moonvoice]

The birds were being so spectacular,
and were wonderful models.

While I don't have the same devotion to birds that I used to
(I think it's spread more now over different animal families)
they still enamour me so very much.


Major Mitchell's Cockatoo




Regent Parrot. I love how the pale vermillion on its wing matches its beak.



Really pretty feathers.

Red-Capped Parrot



A charming Red-Tailed Black Cockatoo who was feeling sleepy.



Major Mitchell's Cockatoo









Green Catbird



I closed in on the feathers because I think I want to draw this fellow.



Look at that glorious eye!



Laughing Kookaburra





That is definitely a snake/lizard killing beak.

For a sec I was 'Those are odd colours for a Kookaburra', then read the text.

Same family though! :D

This is where you beat us on colourful birdies every time!

Honestly some of them are just absurdly colourful :D

That green catbird is so pretty. I'm loving the starry-looking black cockatoo, of course.

And kookaburra <3 They look so charming, and the only individual I've ever met in person was a real ham.

The green catbird was gorgeous and I'm pretty sure I've never photographed it before so I was happy they turned out.

I love kookaburras. :D
