Such amazing floral and fauna Down Under. This is unlike any bird we have. I guess it adopted the ecological niche of the hummingbirds around here. I hope your drought has come to an end. Nice photo.
Artist Reply: Thanks David the drought is more in the eastern states we have some dry areas down the southwest in the wheatbelt but here near perth it is'nt too bad. just pretty hot and we have locusts problem at the moment. Helen
