The one with the blue cere is ♂
Budgerigar
Scientific Name: Melopsittacus undulatus
Description: Since its introduction into captivity, the Budgerigar (or 'budgie') has been bred into a variety of colour forms, including pure white, blue, yellow, mauve, olive and grey. In the wild, Budgerigars are small green and yellow parrots, with black barring above, and a small patch of blue on the cheek. The male has a dark blue cere (skin at the base of the upper mandible surrounding the nostrils). In the female this is brownish when breeding and light blue otherwise. Young Budgerigars are similar to the adult birds, but are duller and have a dark brown eye (which is white or yellow in adults).
Distribution: The Budgerigar occurs naturally throughout much of mainland Australia, but is absent from the far south-west, the north of the Northern Territory, Tasmania and the majority of the east coast.
Habitat: Budgerigars are nomadic and large flocks of birds can be seen in most open habitat types, but seldom far from water. Very large flocks, numbering occasionally in the tens of thousands, are seen after a season of abundant rainfall and food. Flocks are usually much smaller, however, and range from as few as three birds up to 100 or more. Birds in a flock fly in a characteristic undulating manner.
Seasonal movements: Nomadic.
Feeding: Budgerigars feed almost exclusively on the seeds of native herbs and grasses, such as porcupine grass and saltbush. Seeds are mostly eaten from the ground and the bulk of drinking and feeding activity is in the morning.
Breeding: Budgerigars tend to breed in response to rainfall, and may produce several broods if conditions permit. The nest is a bare cavity in a suitable tree branch or in the trunk. The female sits on the round white eggs. As with other parrots, young budgerigars are born naked and helpless.
Calls: The contact call is a warbling "chirrup"; "zit" is given in alarm.
Minimum Size: 17cm
Maximum Size: 18cm
Average size: 18cm
Average weight: 28g
Breeding season: Any time of year when conditions suitable
Clutch Size: 6 to 8 eggs
Nestling Period: 35 days

These stunning pink lilies showcase their vibrant petals drenched in morning dew, standing gracefully among lush greenery. Their elegant stamens and budding companions hint at the season’s abundant life, while the soft tones of the garden path in the background add a natural, tranquil charm. A celebration of nature’s artistry captured in full bloom.

Square-tailed Kite
Scientific Name: Lophoictinia isura
Although it usually occurs singly, the Square-tailed Kite is sometimes seen soaring in pairs during the breeding season, and family groups of adults and one or two dependent young may be seen during post-fledging period. The Square-tailed Kite usually hunts by flying low over the treetops, occasionally plunging down through the foliage to snatch a bird or insect from among the leaves or twigs. The species often eats the nestlings of birds, and sometimes it will remove the entire nest to get at the young birds, and at other times may remove the tiny birds, one clutched tightly by the talons of each foot. They also catch adult birds by surprising them in the canopy of the forest.
Description: Often solitary, but can be seen in pairs when nesting. Squared-tailed Kites have a long, square tail with very long, upswept paddle-shaped wings and a large cream crescent at the base of their wing tips.
Similar Species: Immature Black Kite, Black-breasted Buzzard, and Red Goshawk
Distribution: Endemic to mainland Australia.
Habitat: The species mainly inhabits open eucalypt forests and woodlands, often where there is a broken canopy, but it also ranges into nearby open habitats. In southern Australia, Square-tailed Kites mainly inhabit open eucalypt forests and woodlands, often dominated by stringybarks, peppermints or box–ironbark eucalypts, as well as Woollybutt, Spotted Gum, Manna Gum, Messmate, River Red Gums, as well as other trees such as Angophora, cypress-pines and casuarinas. It also occurs along the edges of dense forest and along in road verges with remnant or planted trees, and in clearings within forest or in areas of regrowth, up to 4 years after the area has been logged. Other habitats which occasionally support Square-tailed Kites include mallee, heathland (mallee or coastal) and other low shrublands including saltbush plains, and also grasslands or open or cultivated farmland near remnant woodland.
Feeding: Searching for prey from the air, where they are highly agile at low levels, they mainly hunt in eucalypt open forest or woodland, and less often in low shrublands, heath, grassland or crops, and the margins between open and timbered country (forest–heath; woodland–heath; forest–open field; mallee–open paddocks; woodland edges; riparian timber; belts of trees in urban or semi-urban areas; and clearings in forests) are especially favoured. They specialise in hunting among trees, twisting between and below tree-tops, and they take most prey from the outer foliage of the canopy, but do not enter the canopy.
Breeding: Square-tailed Kites nest on horizontal branches in mature living trees, especially eucalypts, often near water, and they need extensive areas of forest or woodland surrounding or nearby.
Calls: Yelping, yeep, yeep, yeep. Also squealing ee ee ee ee
Minimum Size: 50cm
Maximum Size: 55cm
Average size: 53cm
Average weight: 568g
Breeding season: Aug - Dec
Incubation: 37 days
Nestling Period: 63 days

This sweeping landscape at Gibbs Gardens captures the grandeur of tall, slender trees reaching towards the expansive blue sky. The trees, some still holding onto the last of their autumn leaves, form a striking silhouette against the clear, bright canvas above. Beneath this natural canopy, a lush field of daffodils blankets the ground, a sea of yellow beneath the towering trunks. The composition of the photo, with its contrast between the vertical lines of the trees and the horizontal sweep of the daffodil field, draws the viewer's eye across the beauty of the scene. It’s a picture of peaceful coexistence, where the sky’s vastness meets the earth’s vibrant spring life in Ball Ground, Georgia. Visitors, visible in the distance, provide a sense of scale and remind us of the human joy found in connecting with nature.

Rainbow Bee-eater
Scientific Name: Merops ornatus
The Rainbow Bee-Eater is a spectacular bird. With its green, blue, chestnut and yellow plumage, its slim build, slender curved bill and distinctive streamers that extend from the end of its tail, it is simply beautiful. Bee-Eaters are a familiar sight in many lightly-timbered parts of mainland Australia, where they often perch on fence-posts or overhead wires, then launch after flying insects, flying swiftly, sometimes with rapid twists and turns, before snapping the insect in its bill, and returning to the perch to eat it. Research featured in the 'State of Australia's Birds 2015' headline and regional reports shows a marked decline for the Rainbow Bee-eater (and some other aerial insectivories) in the East Coast region, where reporting rates for this species have dropped by over 50% in the since 2001.
Description: A striking, colourful bird, the Rainbow Bee-eater is medium sized, with a long slim curved bill and a long tail with distinctive tail-streamers. It has a golden crown and a red eye set in a wide black stripe from the base of the bill to the ears, which is edged with a thin blue line. The throat is orange-yellow, with a broad black band separating it from a green breast. The upperparts are green, with the flight feathers coppery and black tipped. The underwings are bright orange, with a black edge. The lower abdomen is blue. The tail is black, including the long tail streamers, with a blue tinge. Females have shorter, thicker tail streamers than males, but are otherwise similar. Young birds are duller and greener, lacking the black band on the chest and the long tail streamers.
Similar Species: The Rainbow Bee-eater may resemble some kingfishers, however these are plumper, with strong straight beaks, and never catch prey in flight.
Distribution: The Rainbow Bee-eater is found throughout mainland Australia, as well as eastern Indonesia, New Guinea and, rarely, the Solomon Islands. In Australia it is widespread, except in desert areas, and breeds throughout most of its range, although southern birds move north to winter over.
Habitat: The Rainbow Bee-eater is most often found in open forests, woodlands and shrublands, and cleared areas, usually near water. It will be found on farmland with remnant vegetation and in orchards and vineyards. It will use disturbed sites such as quarries, cuttings and mines to build its nesting tunnels.
Feeding: Rainbow Bee-eaters eat insects, mainly catching bees and wasps, as well as dragonflies, beetles, butterflies and moths. They catch flying insects on the wing and carry them back to a perch to beat them against it before swallowing them. Bees and wasps are rubbed against the perch to remove the stings and venom glands.
Breeding: Rainbow Bee-eaters gather in small flocks before returning to summer breeding areas after over-wintering in the north (apart from the resident northern populations). Both males and females select a suitable nesting site in a sandy bank and dig a long tunnel (average length: 89.4 cm) leading to a nesting chamber, which is often lined with grasses. Both parents incubate the eggs and both feed the young, sometimes with the assistance of auxiliaries (helpers).

Thanks for the comments, faves and visits
This enchanting snapshot brings to life the hidden beauty within a neighborhood's green space. A resplendent cluster of magenta crepe myrtle blossoms takes center stage, its vivid color popping against the soft-focus backdrop of community foliage. The flower's intricate, ruffled petals stand out in sharp detail, drawing the eye amidst the green tapestry of leaves and the sturdy presence of tree trunks in the background.
This image beautifully captures the essence of urban landscaping done right - where pockets of intense natural beauty are seamlessly integrated into shared community areas. It's a testament to how thoughtful planning can bring the magic of nature right to our doorsteps, creating serene retreats within the bustle of neighborhood life. The photograph serves as a reminder of the small yet impactful moments of beauty that residents can encounter in their daily lives, highlighting the value of preserving and nurturing green spaces in our urban environments.

⭐️Thank you in Advance for your kind ‘Faves’ Visits and Comments they are so very much appreciated. 👍
I cannot always ‘Thank’ everyone individually, for their Visits and ‘Faves’ however, I will always try to respond and thank all those that leave a ‘Comment’. If I do not reply to your 'Comment', it is not because I am ignoring you, it's because I have not seen the 'Comment'.
Your 'Comments' do not always appear in 'Notifications' or Flickr mail, so, I am sorry for any delay in responding. Often your 'Comment' is only spotted 'On the Page' on the day, that I see it. (seen ONLY when replying to someone HAS 'Commented' on the image, and I see a notification)
