These Chats were taken at the Alice Springs Desert Park. If you are planning a trip to Alice the park is a bird lovers paradise They have 3 huge walk in aviaries. Not cheap at $22 each (concession) but if you want to return within 5 days you can get a re-visit pass for about $5 each. We did 3 revisits ant turned up at 7.30 am when the gates opened and no tourists to stuff it up.
Lovely stuff Doug, defiantely a couple more on my priority list to see
Dont take life too seriously, it never ends well
Stunning birds .... beautiful shots.
Cool birds. Were these in the avaries?

Aiming for DSLR-quality shots with a bridge camera
Definately would love to see these guys some day. I have seen the Crimson Chats but not a pholo as lovely as yours. BTW I think thats an Orange Chat not a yellow due to the black throat & lores.
Both would be new to me. Nice shots Doug!
Yes Birdy they were taken at the Alice Springs Desert Park.
You are correct Devster, I had a Yellow Chat as well but got them mixed up when I edited the images.
Thank you all for your positive comments. I'll post some more shortly
Doug.
