Spot the Galah

There’s nothing more glorious than the colours of nature.  Recently I had my film SLR with me, as I had to use up a roll of ISO 3200 colour film.  I hadn’t planned to use the film on nature photography, but I needed to finish the roll of film.

Wandering around the streets I kept seeing these gorgeous trees covered in pink flowers.  Then, as I looked closely I saw…

Pink galahs!  They were difficult to see, being practically camouflaged by the flowers:

The image is a bit grainy - being ISO 3200 film, but you get the idea.  Here is one where you can see the birds better - one of them is flexing its wings.

Standing on the side of a busy road, looking up I managed to get a few glances with curious expressions.  Still it was worth it!
