They're a well-red lot in the wild

Went for some flight reading at Lucinda today.

Paged the Ospreys but only J Livingstone Silver Gull (Chroicocephalus novaehollandiae) showed up.

More low-brow than high, Red-browed Finch (Neochmia temporalis) makes a show falling on seeders.

Crimson Finch (Neochmia phaeton) sits in at Tyto as a scarlet letter, in spite of lacking hawthorn.

Though surely Helmeted Friarbird (Philemon buceroides) could only come from a forester's African Tulip Queen?
