Des took the day off work today to spend it with us. He decided to take us out to a zoo north of the city but on the way we stopped here to feed the wild birds. Apparently it is a popular spot for the tourists. The birds were there waiting for us. We took our own seed with us, and one of the birds was cheeky enough to actually get onto Rick's hand and eat the seed straight out of our container. These are all King Parots. The different coloured ones in the first 2 photos differentiate males and females. Aren't they just beautiful birds?

sally I'm fairly sure those second two birds with the blue colouring are actually crimson Rosellas.
Beautiful photos.
Hi Sally, Ah now I see what you are saying! LOL. We had a visit from 3 king's this morning and its the head/chest colour you are referring to, I'll post some pics later if you are interested. Only got a good one of the Male though the females ( and I think an immature bird ) are both in silhouette.
