Well done, been trying to catch some in the wild, but they are too flighty. Need a bigger lens 🙂

The rosellas nesting in the round holes in the walls of 15 Bowes Street are still there, you could try getting a shot of them if you’re keen to brave the Woden bus interchange. Above platform 15 would be a good place. I saw two rosellas this morning, one at each hole, checking out the scenery and having a chat as they clung to the openings. I’d have taken a photo but I was running to catch a bus that turned out to be too full.

Nice pic. I get them regularly on my Silver Birches in the inner south. They like to chew on the catkins.

We’ve had frequent visits from a few of Rosellas over the past summer.
