Had them in my garden as well. They love palm seeds. Aptly named. Interesting to know the several subspecies. Awesome close-up of this colourful cutie from QLD.

The colours are amazing, Peter.

Thank you for the video. I enjoyed your beautiful playing. That’s some drinks collection you have! I used to love Kahlua. :)
