Very excited this morning to open the curtains and see about 8 Superb Parrots all on the bird bath. Unfortunately I had to photograph with my phone through the glass door. Most flew off to the reserve on the north as I got out my phone but then 2 came back to sit on the clothes line before flying off south over the house
