The annual lorikeet season of beauty and gluttony

Posted on December 13, 2013 by Tangerine MegDecember 13, 2013

Hey Lovely Bold Soul! I hope this finds you shining and well. I am scrambling with stuff, but enjoying the challenge and the sunshine.

Get your scrolling finger ready... here are heaps of photos of glorious, gluttonous rainbow lorikeets decimating our apricot crop!

They are so beautiful aren't they?

I'm ok with it really; following a Low FODMAPs diet I don't eat too much stone fruit. =P

Loving this blue Aussie sky!

Check out the tiny feathers on his head!

Haha! This one's got his eye on me: ... the parrot-parazzi!

Up to his neck in an apricot:

Good shot of his (shake your) tail feathers ...

This is his accomplice:

Loving teh colours in the strong Aussie sunlight. They almost glow, don't they?

If I had a totem bird it would have to be a rainbow lorikeet, so I am kinda honoured that they come each year & strip the tree screechily =)

Which leads nicely to another post, a retrospective of some of the wonders my hairdresser has created for me!

Tell us in the commens about when you had a love-hate relationship with nature. Talk soon =) Love Meg x o

PS There is no typed text in this post. Did you notice? (Haha, unless you are reading the alt text, which I completely typed!)

PS I really want to make some lorikeet art - do you think I should do a lino print or pen drawing? (I'm thinking pen).

Bold Souls Say

I don’t send as many cards as I used to – so many of my friends have gone completely digital. For those I still send “real cards” to, I want something special as they are my dearest friends. Barbara SetzerWashington, US

Big Accolades, Tangerine Meg!! YOU ROCK!!! Rosemary Herd, AdelaideAustralia
Meg’s art is so amazing: bright, cheerful, colorful, deep. I follow her on Instagram, and her work never ceases to bring such light and smiles to my life. I purchased the original of “Tails of Magic”, and it got to me super fast despite there being like a gazillion miles of ocean between us. It graces my mermaid wall, and is truly a joy to behold every single time I look at it. I feel so grateful to have her work in my life! Kyeli Smith
I am so excited that I am finally getting some of your works … [later] They arrived safely and quickly. LOVE them. I am putting them up in my studio for inspiration. Robyn Fisher, CanberraAustralia
The prints are truly more vibrant and lovely than I even imagined — I’m beyond honoured to hang these in my humble abode. They really are going to bring a bold and nourishing splash of colour to our lives. Bec LeighBrisbane, Australia
LOOVE Rainbow Lady! Nona ParryCitizen of the World
Love, love, LOVE the broccoli and the Nasturtiums paintings. You take simple subjects and bring them to life. Oh, what colors! Nancy PetersonCalifornia, US
