Green..


So, heard about Green Week via House On Hill Road, and naturally, had to join in. :p I'm a little late, but whatever. Green will be celebrated.

Green lorikeets...they hang out in our backyard, and come and screech on the porch til someone comes out and feeds them. Yes, that is straight sugar...the kids get right to the point.



There you have it, folks..one of the few things I really like about living in Australia. Usually I just want to go HOME...but watching the lorikeets, etc in the backyard is just magical. Except when they decide to do the screeching very first thing in the morning, and I want to throw a shoe at them.

I might as well throw in a few more gratuitous bird shots here. :p These guys are all regular visitors, too.

Is the last one a kukabura? (Did I spell that right?)

Kookaburra..and yes, it is. :) They are a lot bigger than you think, lol...about as big as your head, actually!

So cool. A lot more interesting than our usual collection of brown, black & gray birds around here.
