The wattle birds absolutely love the flowers on our horse chestnut. While the flowers are forming they come and check them every day as if they are saying 'when's dinner?'. They have been feeding for a few weeks now and they are getting fat.
I've used a topaz studio filter to disguise the slight movement bur a bit.

I'd have preferred the slight movement blur. But that's not news: I like everything a little blurred. Or a lot. It's a lovely, interesting bird. Thank you.

I find the filter very distracting.

I googled it to find out if that red thing on its face was a flower petal (it matches in color). I especially like the effect of the filter on the leaves. It's such a challenge to get the shot you want of a bird. Your back yard is beautiful.

I use Topaz for the same reason sometimes. Not sure it's working here for me. I really want to see this interesting bird clearly as I've never even heard of one :)

Ah, a wattle bird, never heard of them so, I just typed 'wattle bird' into my browser and this picture was the first on the list!
