Rainbow Lorikeet in the Afternoon Sun

There are incredible flocks of Rainbow Lorikeets surging around at sunset getting a bit of a feed before bedtime I guess.
I was lucky enough to be walking towards this tree with Toto when a group of them left a big Moreton Bay fig tree and all came and landed on this tree for a rest.Looks infinitely better in Large!!
I took some shots from a distance and then kept walking toward them taking shots along the way.  They are very skittish and I was surprised to get quite close before they all took off ; ).  This was the best shot of many and I’ve put one of the longer shots in extras just to get the idea of a lovely rainbow tree ; )
