Lorikeets fly wild down in Sydney, Australia, where my daughter's family lives.

The birds have started coming up to the porch and eating seeds out of the kids' hands.

Pictures of life in Jerusalem and the Jerusalem Hills. And since August 2013 also a look at the northern Negev, my new home.
Very nice!
ReplyDeleteSo cool. The kids must love this. Beautiful birds too.
ReplyDeleteYour ABC Wednesday of the Russian Orthodox Church is so clever with the brooms, buckets, bells, babushki and all. How lucky your grand children are to have these birds eating out of their hand!
ReplyDeleteLibby is a super cutie pie! Our three daughters are 10, 8, and 5 - I remember well that age!
ReplyDeleteOh, and the birds are pretty too!
Beautiful birds and a beautiful child getting the right introduction to the animal world!
ReplyDeleteOMG, they're gorgeous! We have a lot of parrots here, but they're all green. And Libby is very very cute as well!
ReplyDeleteCute critters - both the feathered and human ones!
ReplyDeleteWow I love those lorikeets...I need to find some & get my camera trained on them! What cool birds & such color! I can see why the kids enjoyed them so much!
ReplyDeleteIn Denmark all that kind of bird are "in jail" more or less, but friendly if trained ;-)
ReplyDeleteThanks a lot for your comments at my http://anjoe-legehuset.blogspot.com
If you visit my comic blog again, choose "fugl og fisk", and birds (+fish) can give you another smile :-D
How wonderful for the children! I remember Lorikeets in Australia. I had never seen birds so colorful before.
ReplyDeleteLibby is certainly learning about wildlife at a young age!

Wow! To have birds like that in the backyard .. great photos!
ReplyDeleteWhat absolutely gorgeous birds!!! Can't believe how pretty they are.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful shots!
ReplyDeleteThree Horses, have a great weekend!
These birds are gorgeous! There is a colony of red-headed green ones here in Oeiras, but they never get that close to people. You can also find them in two areas in Lisbon, but don't ask me where all of them came from...
ReplyDeleteThinking of you, Dina, in all this mishagas in Egypt!

She's lucky: after half a century I am not yet a big animal lover...
ReplyDeleteTwo lorikeet posts on the same day! Diane in Australia (Adventure before Dementia) also posted about her garden and showed us a photo of these gorgeous birds.
ReplyDeleteI think it is wonderful that the kids are learning, at an early age, to appreciate wildlife. These are very colorful birds.
ReplyDeleteRare things search for something alike. May time and life continue to treat them all kind.
ReplyDeletePlease have a good Sunday.

They are so pretty -- I love the brilliant colors. And how cool that they let people get so close to them. My kids would be over the moon!

Beautiful, Dina. Libby is very cute indeed!
ReplyDeleteWow! That is so amazing. The coloring on the birds are strikingly beautiful. Libby looks big. She's 8 months old already? Time sure does fly.
