 we went to symbio wildlife park which is south of sydney on the weekend ..
this is a combination of several shots of some sulphur crested cockatoos drinking etc from the old laundry tubs which were in the emu enclosure .. the cockatoos can come and go as they please coz its only got a fence around it ..
i thought they looked pretty funny when their heads were sticking out'v the tubs .. :)

Beautiful and strange all rolled into one! I really love the glowing blue of the birds, like they are from another mysterious world that you just happened to stumble into...but then, you're often in another mysterious world, you creative genius you :-)

What kinda tubs are those? I could use a few for the chickens in my yard. Looks like there is a black sheep-bird in the flock! Your hat is safe for the time being.

Hilarious, and beautiful too. Your hat is safe! Btw, if Kelli thinks that sulphur crested cockatoos are like fairies, I'm betting she's never heard a flock of them.

Absolutely gorgeous! I love how the colors are reflected in the water, and the texture of the water is a painting unto itself. This has such an ethereal feeling.

The ones in the tubs are hilarious! I remember going to grade school with kids like that!

Oh I just love the flutter of birds wings. Seems as though that blur has run throughout this side challenge. This is so beautiful.

LOL! From the thumbnail I was expecting fairies! Well, I guess they're pretty close to being fairies. I really, really love the wings on the flying one!
