My favorites, they are so friendly and funny
the sugar thief: this little guy landed on my table, took a bag of sugar from my saucer, made a hole in it with its bill and ate all the sugar inside...
On the street in Alice Spring
At a farm
He was free to go where it wanted but clearly loved a good chat
they too were funny to watch
this guy pooed on my head...
Ibises seem to be a nuisance in Australia, like pigeons for us

I love the petrol pump attendant!
australia is for the birds :)
those poor emus(?) will become steaks on a plate
What beautiful birds you saw!! I recognized a few of them from programs I have seen on tv. Some I have never seen. I do wish I could go there myself and see all of these beautiful birds but since I probably will never be able to I want to thank you for these great looks.
Aren't the Aussie birds wonderful? My mother used to feed them on her back deck. She had lots of Lorekeets (tenth photo), Kookaburras (9th photo), parrots and plenty of others. It was great entertainment. Sometimes the kookas and magpies would come right into the house :) They were very friendly.
During a picnic, my youngest daughter once had a chicken leg snatched from her hand by a kookaburra :) Have I told you that story before?
