Not known for my bird photos, but was too tempting with these colourful denizens of the booderee national park.
Edit: Changed title on sound advice.

Rain lorikeet is excellent, the 1st one looks like a cousin to the common (USA) cardinal, well done, Max

Very nice shots Justin. They can be tricky subjects, especially when they flit around so quickly. It's nice to see you've retained some 'natural habitat' in the frame too.

If you want some really tame birds, including kookas and those black and white ones amongst other stuff with wings, Booderee national park - Greenpatch or Bristol point - these were taken at bristol point. Lots of great 'habitat' and friendly birds - what more could you ask for (sounds a bit like North Sydney on a friday night

Justin,
You have captured these 2 birds quite well. Maybe just a bit more DOF with the Rainbow but quite good nonetheless.
Cheers
