AustralianBirds


One of the striking differences about being in Australia was that the most exotic birds can be seen almost everywhere. The cockatiels and parrots that we see only in cages in America, are actually considered pests in the city because of their large numbers and constant loud bickering with each other. Sitting in an open air cafe in Adelaide I was stunned by the noise and the beautiful colors of the red,green, and blue parrots fighting in the tree beside me. In Sydney, this Ibis was casually wandering around an open air market.
