A Beautiful King Parrot in the Garden.

Whilst Parrots usually feed on seeds of indigenous plants, this male King Parrot and his harem of 4 females, were having a great feast of the seeds of a European tree, probably a Sycamore. They were very cleverly nipping off each winged seed and in one deft movement eating the seed and discarding the unwanted wings.
