Seeing the two Eastern Rosellas

We know these two Eastern Rosellas (Little Red Heads) ever since they were baby parrots.  These two parrots have now grown from baby to mature birds.  This Saturday, Sunday and Monday today, we saw these two birds for three continuous days nonstop this year in 2011. 

Today we saw them once in the morning and again once in the afternoon.  We saw them for years and then not see them for a year.  Now they have come back. They sometimes stay here and eat a while and fly away but most of the time they stay here to eat for so long before they fly away and leave here.  We do not know how many meals they have each day.  We guess that they must eat two or more meals a day. 
Now we call them red heads because the colour of their heads is red and also they are one of the favourites of birds. (Photo: RA & NMG)

  1. This is such a fun story! The red heads are very cute. Thanks for introducing them in your blog. new saturn, you're so lucky to be seeing them so often. You must have spent much time waiting and watching out for them. How else would you be able to spot them at the right place and the right time?! :) Btw, nice pix. Looking forward to more posts by you.
