Absolutely gorgeous photo! The composition and colours are amazing, the red is especially beautiful and eye-catching. The bird is sharp and well in focus too, this is the kind of quality image you would see in prints, calendars and postcards. I also like how you've chosen a relatively underrated and unknown Australian bird. Congratulations on 3rd place in my competition!
I love this image, you've captured the playfulness and mischief of the Little corella quite well. They sure are a joy to observe and photograph! Though this is a good image, it appears to be slightly blurred and out of focus, I would suggest using a higher shutter speed next time when photographing birds, especially birds in action.
The colours, composition and overall quality of this image is absolutely amazing! It perfectly captures the colour and beauty of the rainbow lorikeet, from its unique wing plumage to its bright red beak, the blurred background really brings full attention to this gorgeous creature. An amazing quality photo worthy of praise and appreciation, which is why I've awarded you 1st place in my Australian Native Parrots competition!

I would love to see your best colour photos of Australian native parrots in their natural habitat. Examples of native Australian species include sulphur-crested cockatoos, little and long-billed corellas, black cockatoos, rainbow lorikeets, budgerigars, galahs, cockatiels, rosellas and grass parrots. Try to choose images that emphasize their natural beauty and colour and show their behaviour. Please only enter wild birds, and only photos in colour. I hope you have fun with the contest.
