This would be a marvelous photo with just the bottlebrush -- lovely colors and composition. But with the lorikeet, in its amusing pose, this photo becomes very, very special. Jacqueline, this is a work of art that should hanging in a gallery somewhere.

What a lovely sight to greet you in the morning, what with the colorful tree and birds just outside your window, and while I am not familiar with the sound of lorikeets it's gotta' be better than crows and starlings which is what I often get, lol...great composition.:Pat.

Hi Jackie, this image is breathtakingly beautiful!! Can you imagine in your wildest dreams, that one might see all of these naturally and brilliantly colored birds, outside our window? Australia is so generous with tropical birds such as these! As I am writing to you, I am reminded of your beautiful purple trees you have captured and shared with us in the past!! Simply a delight to see, and to enjoy! Your continent offers many photographic opportunities, that differ in many ways from those of others, as it should be! To my knowledge Jackie, you are the only member from Australia that I am aware of, is this true? So, it is imperative that you stay on the job and continue to be productive in your supply of great works for all of us at Caedes!! We need you! LOL!! These little Lorikeets are lovely!!! Sincerely, Marilyn
