From the last invasion
One from the last invasion around here a few years back.
The birds had been displaying just prior to this. The one on the right had just given a berry to the other bird which I assume was a female.

A very nice image.
Great to see two on the perch so close together and the berries all round frame the scene nicely.
Could have none with just a fraction more depth of field to keep the rear bird as sharp as the first but still an excellent result and a very attractive image.
