Yes indeed it is as Treebeard has stated a Lorikeet !!! Damn John your getting good with this bird-watching, beautiful little bundle of feathers the picture of the one on Dusty's head is priceless, I think the first picture [the brown one with the long legs] is an Australian Bird also... sure doesn't look like he was born in Kentucky lol but maybe so, he is an interesting little fellow..got some strange legs.<br><br>
