Garden visitors
No Alice - not yet. We're not there yet. Best pictures will be, I think, in about a week's time. But maybe by then the Ixias will have finished. Hmmmm.....
In the meantime - here are today's visitors. I can never remember if these are the Rainbow Lorrikeets or the Eastern Rosellas. I think the first. I think...

I concur with Jen!
We "only" have Rainbows,pale headed Rosellas,Scaly breasted parrots,Galahs,Suphur crested cockatoos,two bar finches,butcherbirds(pied) Magpies do the breakfast with the Kurli's bit every day!
(And that's not taking into account the honey eaters of many varieties,etc,etc!)
Is that your sparaxia growing underneath?
There are actually a few things there in the background - but the main ones are Star of Bethlehem -
Ornithogalum umbellatum

I have been known to mistakenly call them Tritonia in the past. :(
How lucky you are to get such beautiful birds in your feeder. We have nothing that compares in Michigan. I thought our red cardinals were nice, but they are nothing in comparison!
