Parrots outside my office. I set down some sunflower seed and let the camera record the action. You may hear the sound of magpies warbling in the background.

I love the way that one red one in particular keeps chasing off all the others. "MINE!! MINE!!"

Thanks for sharing that!

I'll have to see if I can get a cockatoo or two!

Aww the first one thought he was onto a good thing but then the others wouldn't let him back in. I love parrots, they are so colourful and active. I took photos of Kookaburras to print out for my USA penpal yesterday.

My absolute favourite though are the galahs. We get a big flock of them in the park behind our house and also a huge flock of Corellas (SP?).

Those are called rosellas aren't they?

Funny how they are so grumpy!

They look so exotic to me, they look as though they are someone's pets.

The first bird is a crimson rosella, the next lot are king parrots, who are actually some of the better behaved birds!

I liked the first, different looking one best. Such lovely colours! I thought it was a budgerigar.

Oh Pete that is so cool! How lovely to see that from your office. I've been hoping to one day go see the feral parrots on Telegraph Hill but I want to see your wild fellas too.

Next time you'll have to spread the seeds out more so that one fella can't guard the whole pile. *grin*
