I forgot to say the rosellas don't eat the seed I put for them they only come for the water.

We put out sunflower seed, the rosellas eat it, so do the lorikeets and the pidgeons have a bit as well. Hard work keeping up the supply.

I hope the rosellas will eat, but I think they are a bit shy at the moment.
Today I had finches, willie wagtail, yellow throated honey eaters, grass parrots, rosellas, crested pidgeons and some noisy minor birds all visit the bird bath.

Bad news I am afraid to tell, we actually had two, that's right two, baby parrotts. Sadly they have not survived. We thought the parents were agitated when they came to the nest box morning and night, decided to have a look. Two babies, both deceased and an unhatched egg. Don't know what went wrong, maybe the box gets too hot, Neil is busy putting ventilation holes in it and will put it on the other side of the palm and hope that will keep it a bit cooler. Better luck next time, feel sorry for the parrotts, they are trying so hard to be good parents and it is just not working. Maybe next time.

poor birdies, it has been unseasonly warm.
We had a cold snap hit here a couple of nights ago and now my budgie has a respiratory infection 😞
Poor little bugger looks so miserable. I've brought him inside from the aviary and have antibiotics to give him, but I really don't know if he'll make it through the night.

Pimpy, put a desk light next to his cage to keep him warm. Not with a LED globe though, a 40w should do the trick. Hope he pulls through. 😞
