Comment from Susan F. M. T.
Mary,
A beautiful picture of the Musk Lorikeet on a branch above the New Holland Honeyeater both perched in the Eucalyptus , the sun higlighting the Lorikeet's head & the Left side of the Honeyeater with the blue sky above creating a beautiful backdrop. Beautiful composition framing and lighting taken with superb camera techniques and sharp focus.

Cool,Mary!
Your photographic capture of these two attractive birds in close proximity to each other looks great,my friend!
It's strikingly colorful and kind of 'Cheerful' looking and I'm enjoying it a lot! : )

Thanks Fred - yes normally the honeyeater is bullying any other birds in the tree :)

Comment from seshadri_sreenivasan
:):) Looks like the parakeet is trying out some Yoga tricks!:) Honey eater is not impressed! Interesting shot. Good timing! The light and shadows, colours and the composition have worked out well. Good effort!

Peek-a-boo, I see you! Your DOF is perfect. To catch these two friends together in the same focal plane shows that you know what you are doing with the camera. The clutter of branches helps frame the birds. It takes a bit of sorting out but very acceptable. Lighting and unfocused greenery frames the scene very well. ice shot!

Cute title. The clarity is great. The angle of the shot of these colorful birds in the tree is great. The capture of the light is great. The image is balance and eye appealing to the viewer. Good eye and great job overall

A very good looking and amusing nature shot posted here! Your tight composition suggests that there may not be!! Both birds though do look pretty settled up there. Exposure and sharpness are good. Nicely done!

Comment from Malmax
Mary this image appears rather tropical and has such a warm climate feel to it. The orientation of the birds is fantastic , complimentary, and colorful. I almost wish the background had more DOF or was slightly blurred,
I think your subjects would stand out even more.
This is incredibly unique and an artistic capture.
