I knew they were around the area, but that was the first time I got to see them. As for the way birds are attracted to you - colorful birds are attracted to colorful people, I guess!tracyhttp://lifeisaroadtrip.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-75940352424958395842012-04-29T20:59:48.451-07:002012-04-29T20:59:48.451-07:00Great shots and information.

She is quite devoted to it and gives it attention and interaction daily.

He was exceedingly amusing especially when we used to let him out of his cage to fly the room. He was so tame and learnt to talk.

Then there's our Spirulino sparrow, with 2 damaged wings. Small cage, but he spends his day under the ash tree, or on the verandah in nasty weather. He's very particular - some sparrows and weavers and red bishops - he chats too, and others he swears at.Diana Studerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12286066768376135880noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-81306798906592545242012-04-28T11:08:45.784-07:002012-04-28T11:08:45.784-07:00These are so tropical-looking it's hard to ima...These are so tropical-looking it's hard to imagine that you can enjoy them locally.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10924547158802290714noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4196318759342517444.post-1585198364905534282012-04-28T11:04:43.388-07:002012-04-28T11:04:43.388-07:00They really are wonderfully colourful Chris.
