Getting up close and personal - Explored FP

It was a cool but sunny day in Sydney today so I went for a walk with my camera. I heard the Rainbow Lorikeets in my neighbour's garden and when I was taking photos this one hopped down onto the grass and came walking so close to me, which is very unusual as they are always very skittish. It was standing right near my feet and I took the photos standing over it. These photos were taken with the 75-300 mm lens and are SOOC only resized in Photoshop.

 

Seen on FP by herosipet, nejire and Peggy - not picked up by scout as yet.
