This is an Australian striated pardalote. Striated means striped. It is very small, around the size of a wren. They are not easily photographed because of their size and the fact that they stay in shadow most of the time because they are rather easy prey for our raptor population.

Another Welcome Swallow. About the size of a small hand, they just don't stop swooping and soaring.

No, crimson rosellas are different. Here's a mediocre image taken on a rather gloomy day from afar.

Australian Hobby. Which is actually a variety of Falcon. They are raptors that fly very high looking for prey.

Peace??? What's that?? You think that when the children leave the nest you will live out your days in tranquility...but nooooo....around ten years later the REAL storm hits!!!!
At least we still abide by the grandparent creed; all care, NO responsibility.

It's what bird photographers refer to as a rarely seen bird that they hope to photograph before their life ends. "I've wanted to photograph that bird ALL my life..."
A Regent Honey Eater for example.
