Sorry - these are almost becoming cliche, but........it was there, in my garden, and I couldn't help myself.

To anyone other than another Aussie, that would sound really painful, Peter.

Good shot of these beautiful little critters. I'm envious that they visit you so regularly.

Never a cliche friend. They are quite beautiful, colorful and you capture them very well. Many thanks for the treat.

Since we don't have them in the wild, I always stop to photograph them at the zoo. Wouldn't pass up a shot of this beautiful bird. It's good to see them in natural surroundings.

Being neither Australian, nor aware of any cliche, I feel no pain.
But I surely am impressed with that very colorful bird, so very excellently imaged.
Also that finely detailed plant--I have to assume it is not what is referred to as a Grivillea, since obviously the Grivillea has something to do with pain.
I see no pain here--just a fascinating plant and an astonished / astonishing bird!

Angky.
