Nice photo.  I wonder what the camera settings were to achieve that.....  Super quick shutter to freeze, and fairly high f stop since furthest birds head is in very good focus.

Yes it is...these are the Rainbow 'Lorikeets'....very similar to the Scarlet chested birds that I posted the other day, but with these,,,the females get colors too

Beautiful!  Isn't it cool how they can tuck up their legs to reduce drag?  To look at the pic you wouldn't even think they had legs if you didn't know better.
Always move forward. Never look back.

Incredible looking birds. I thought they were photo shopped prior to reading that they are rainbow lorikeets.
When you find people who not only tolerate your quirks but celebrate them with glad cries of "Me too!" be sure to cherish them. Because those weirdos are your tribe.  (Sweatpants & Coffee)
