Hi,

here's one from last week. The stunning wattle trees are in full bloom right now here in Melbourne. :)
Most people don't really like Noisy Miners, as they can be quite aggressive and loud (who would've thought with that name!?), but when you look at them they are actually quite pretty.

A wonderful shot. The eye patch vs the flowers is great, all on a pleasing background.
Even noisy birds have quiet moments, I guess.

Love this shot for its effect as what I like to call a painting. Wonderful details and isolation and pleasing perch.

Jan, killer shot, everything ties in perfectly, including the yellow eye area matching the flowers - congrats.
