Obviously attracted by my small sunflower field, every day during July three rose-ringed parakeets …
… show up in the garden:
And after they had an extensive breakfast they start accurately to take care for their plumage:
Mrs. Rose-ringed parakeet takes her tail feathers with her beak and cleans them carefully:
Mr. Rose-ringed parakeet in the meantime extensively cleans his claws:
"We are perfectly clean!"
Really it's so beautiful what there is to be seen in the homey biotope!
Best regards
