Go-away birds at Sunset.
At sunset on the evening of Friday 11th October, three young Go-away birds (a.k.a Grey Louries) alighted on a Brunfelsia bush in my garden and proceeded to forage. In this close-up photograph in which one of a pair has a tasty morsel in its mouth, the head of a Parrot (in fact a dried Canna plant leaf) appears behind them in a beautiful example of pareidolia ! - https://earthsky.org/human-world/seeing-things-that-arent-there/
