Observed clinging to a bird feeder , at the extreme of my old digital camera, i thought at first was a Crimson Rosella by the blue cheek but the red is more lighter Eastern Rosella sort of red ( where here there are quite a few in the woodland ) and the yellow band lower front .. maybe a Lorikeet of some description ?
can anyone identify ?

Speaking of cheese, I was watching a show on SBS. A Scandinavian show, and they put cheese in their coffee!
Ewwww
It's true, but more Northen Sweden and Finland. Sort of an old rustic tradition that not many young ones know about.
Not really found in Denmark.
I'm ok now, had a tumultuos 8-10 months, hence haven't been here as much.
Lost mum, lost my main job, lost dad, nearly lost the house and ended up in hospital.
Illness turned out to be not so major, very lucky to have found new fulltime employ in these times and am in the process of negotiating with bank to keep house.
Mum n dad have moved to another world but are still with me and thanks to their upbringing means I have been centred, getting through this unusual period retaining my smile.

I'm so very sorry Kopes. My sympathies.
I knew about your mum and dad, but not your other worries.
But you have worked through it all with your usual grace and aplomb.
May better times be ahead for you
