These local Australian King Parrot pair, visit us at Jarowair sporadically. Last Sunday they turned up on the veranda and this means that they would like a special treat. They love almonds and happily let me take a few photos.

Stunning birds.
ReplyDeleteI didn't realise they liked almonds. We feed the pair that visit us sunflower seeds, which they love.
We found out about their love of almonds by chance, one day when they visited I didn't have anything suitable like seed in the kitchen, so offered the nuts and they loved them - even preferred them over a slice of apple! I put seed in the bird feeders on occasion which has sunflower seeds in it though, and they usually find it and love it too.
DeleteLovely photos of lovely birds.
ReplyDeleteHave you ever played music with a steady beat when they turn up? At a previous address we used to get them regularly and if we were playing something bluesy they'd often bop along in time!
No we have never tried the music! That idea has intrigued me though and I must remember to try it next time they come onto the deck!
DeleteWow, you are so lucky to have these beautiful birds visting you. Pretty shots! Thank you for linking up and sharing your post. Have a happy day!
ReplyDeleteThanks very much Eileen - they are lovely aren't they.
DeleteGorgeous birds! I love the bright colours.
ReplyDeleteThanks Gunilla, the colours are brilliant aren't they!
DeleteHow lovely to have such beautiful and exotic birds come to feed at your home.
ReplyDeleteYes, Joy they are certainly welcome visitors, we never tire of seeing them.
DeleteBeautiful birds. We don't see them here - wish we did.
ReplyDeleteThey are fairly common where we are Liz, but I never tire of seeing them, they are just beautiful.
DeleteI am so jealous!!! To have these beauties just show up to enlighten my day would be a dream come true. So colorful....so pretty...and I can only imagine how entertaining they were.
ReplyDeleteThey can be quite entertaining Anni - we feel blessed also to have them come by every now and then. Thanks for your lovely comment.
DeleteBrilliant images of the pair. Have a lovely week ahead.
