Blue eyed Honey Eater

Everyday I have these birds in my garden. The bright orange flower of the Strelitzia also known as bird of paradise attract these birds to my garden, as well as the Lorikeets.
We get family’s of them the younger birds have green eyes which change in adulthood.
I was so happy to paint the vibrant colours.
