The morning was full of parrots They clambered over chairs many perched amongst the maples and through the windows they did stare their incessant voices calling their colours deep and and bright I wondered how long they had been there? had they been out there all night? it was bedlam on the verandah it was getting messy on the deck all so they could have a gander the new occupants they came to check would we feed them like they were used to? or leave them to their own means? were they welcome to visit regularly? or was that just a parrot dream?
It is actually an old photo from when we bought, but I’d never thought to write about it before. These are King Parrots. They are vivid in colour and friendly by nature. We enjoy their company, but let them find their own food. They arrive in numbers when the Japanese Maples in the background of the photo are seeding. Win win!
Did you move into a new place? I would *love* to have parrots like these resting here and there in the yard.
