Adult feeding baby honeyeater in South Perth, Western Australia

It's spring and today was my lucky day.  I was walking down to the local park early this morning, armed with my camera.  I was hoping to see the baby pink and grey galahs and take their picture down there.  On a neighbour's small garden wall, I noticed this baby honeyeater making a cheeping noise.  Then I saw that the mother was gathering food for her chick nearby.  And so I waited.

The 2013 Kings Park Wildflower Festival is in full swing. Perth, Western Australia.


This is a Protea from South Africa.  It is a remnant from the original botanic garden started in the 60s.  The Kings Park Botanic Garden now focuses only on Western Australian wildflowers.
