Corella Sky

I took these pictures last weekend, as a flock of Little Correlas flew over Ruffy Park Lake.

I liked the way they seemed to define the sky with their wings.




You can find more skies at SkyWatch Friday.

Today is ANZAC day in Australia - so I won't be doing much blogging - replies will be delayed.

We could do nothing better than to protect the worlds children from the horror of war.   SM

    they're unmistakable when out flying in a flock aren't they? So noisy, but not easy to capture; they're like fighter jets!

    A sky dance, I'm fascinated of the swarm behavior of such bird flocks; great photos.

    Beautiful pictures. Anzac Day is a lovely way to remember the bravery of your country's soldiers (so young) and your last sentence says it all.

    That's quite a flock of corellas. Lately, I have noticed corellas and galahs gathered on the grassy areas near many roads I use for travelling to work.
