COLOURFUL VISITOR

 
 
Male King Parrot



 
It's been hot, so hot, high 38-41C. for about 14 days now,
haven't felt like potting, too hot the clay would dry out too fast
today,  finally,  its only 30C. and I have a need to get my hands

into some clay.   Starting off with a little hand building,'
went outside to wash the clay off my hands

and found this fellow having a feed off our grape vine. 
He just sat there, stopped eating
long enough to watch  me walk up very close to take this photo.

  1. Just love King Parrots, we had a pair visit us the other day. The quieter colour of the females is a lovely soft contrast to the bright colours of the male :^)
    I hope I can get into some clay before Mud Colony starts again :^)
