WT1097 - Lorikeets

Photo Details

Poster: helekins

No Stamping - but a lovely image of native Australian Birds - Lorikeets. They are very noise birds - congregating in flocks to feed on nectar from flowering gum trees accompanied by loud screeching and antics.

Hope you enjoy.

These are all such delightful images! Love the sentiment on this one too. Such delightfully fun cards for this challenge. Also saw lorikeets - both in the wild and in a couple of sanctuaries on all three of our visits to your fine country.

Beautiful colors in their feathers, the recipient will be glad they don't "sing" on the paper

Oh, Helen, I love all three of your amazing Aussie bird creations. You have made me want to visit Australia even more than I already did, if only to see all the wonderful wildlife.

The rich greens and blues in the feathers feel so true to life, and the way the frame sets off the image gives it a polished, gallery-style finish. The kraft base adds such a warm, natural grounding that suits these lively birds perfectly.

There's more whimsy in these than I would associate with Victoriana, but for me that definitely the era that your bird portraits evoke.

I really like how you layered these cards out. Adds a lot but stays focused on the bird. Great job on this series
