Rainbow Lorikeet

I know I've blipped these birds numerous times before but they were too good to resist this afternoon. I went out to check the rain guage to see what we got last night and I heard some chirping high up in the palm tree. When I looked up these gorgeous colourful creatures were having a munch on some berries.
We got 30 mls last night which was nice and it has been blowing a gale most of today. The frogs were croaking again this afternoon so maybe tonight we may get some more rain.
I apologise for my lack of commenting lately but I hope to catch up soon. The boring necessities of life seem to keep getting in the way of my blip time!!
