Long Beaked Corella

Walking around the local oval where a flock of these corellas ofen graze, I decided to try my luck.
Luck was wih me, these mischevious birds refused to be intimitated by me. I was able to get very close.
These birds eat grass seeds, so spend a lot of time on the ground.

Thanks, Terry. I was actually hoping that the corellas would take flight and give me a great action shot. They decided not to and did not stop grazing. This is the result.

Wow, great shot, Elaine. How lucky you are to have these birds - and so close!

Thank you so much for your kind words, Hal. Iwas lucky to get so close to this bird.
It was not the least bit timid
