Hi all, this was going to be posted yesterday but with a babe that needed comforting last thing at night it has waited till today. Wishing you all a wonderful weekend.
However, it appears they are not only eagerly awaited for by us....
Our tree can be quite noisy by day and by night. At dusk the bats fly in and after dark the possums appear to get their fill. During the day, it's these guys.
These chatty birds are busy in the tree in twos or fives, or sevens. We watch them. Their magnificent colours draw your eye and hold it. They really are rainbow birds (Rainbow lorikeet). Even the underside of their tail is wonderful.
They all leave quite a mess beneath the tree. Oh well, we admire their beauty and share their enjoyment. And they leave us the odd gift in the form of spectacularly coloured feathers.

So, while the shadows are changing and the sun is, just slightly, lower, we are nourished by the fruits of the season.
