I had a visitor pop by for breakfast this morning. This Rainbow Lorikeet stopped by for about 30 minutes for a quick meal in my bird feeder, And was quite happy even when my 300 F/2.8 was pointing at him at only 1.8m away..

I got a lovely set set of shots, this being my favourite of them all... Shortly afterwards a parrot of some kind came by, however he was much more skittish, and flew away the moment I picked up the camera...

Thanks for looking.
