Australian's have opened their hearts and wallets for Victorian Bush Fire victims...Many are still wearing the clothes they fled their homes in while others are sleeping and living in cars...thoushands of wild animals (Kangaroos, Koalas, Snakes, Brumbies, etc) and cattle had been burned and still diying every second...

Los Australianos han abierto sus corazones y billeteras para las victimas del Incendio en Victoria...algunos de ellos siguen vistiendo las mismas ropas y pijamas que usaron para arrancar y evacuar sus casas y granjas, ahora algunos duermen y viven dentro de algunos autos o refugios momentaneos....miles de animales salvajes (Kanguros, Koalas, Serpientes, Caballos y ganado), flora y fauna autoctona, han sido quemados y siguen muriendo segundo a segundo frente a la impotencia de miles de rescatistas, bomberos y voluntarios...

think fast...

Oh..yeah!...this chapter is absolutelly unreal! two days ago I was in my balcony just enjoying the view and suddenly two parrots in there! just in front of my face looking at me like they want to say " G' Day Mate"....so I thought, nobody is going to believe in my history about this parrots, and just now I don't have my camera with me!...so slowly I went to my room, I bring my camera with me and one piece of pear.... and.....Yes! I could take this amazing pictures to my new friends, because now, every morning they are coming for breakfast....enjoy!

The Rainbow Lorrikeet is one of the most bright and colourful of the Australian parrots.They are common along the entire Eastern seaboard from the top of Cape York round to Adelaide. They need little encouragement to become a regular visitor to your garden. Some parrot seed (especially striped sunflower seed) and a small amount of diluted honey and bread mixture attract them, while plenty of cover, standing water (bird baths), and nesting opportunities will make them resident.
There native diet includes blossoms, berries, other fruit, seeds, and insects and their larvae. They will often be seen in company with scaly-breasted and other lorrikeets...
