lunchtime visitor

best viewed at original size

Photographed through my living-room window on a rainy day: one of two young King Parrots feeding on the seeds of hop-bushes (Dodonaea lanceolata) I grew from local seed and planted out a couple of years ago.
The adult male King Parrot is much more colourful: http://www.pbase.com/donfranklin/image/158908565

Stunning! Wonderfully camouflaged with those leaf colors.

He seems even to match the hop-bush colors! Always fun to get a fine shot like this OOTW. V
