Re: Tropical birds
The Lorikeets (4th one down) used to be all over when I lived in Australia. The cats loved watching them  . The Cockatoos scared them, though.

Re: Tropical birds
Let's talk unique, but deadly tropical birds.
The Cassowary.
The pointed toe will kill you and they have been known to attack. I saw one once in the wild and a few times in the zoo.

It's such a long story, but it's related to studies, marriage, and divorce, and I just stayed abroad.
Freaking Australia and their animals! At least here in Germany, not too many scary animals except the pine martens (like a ferret) that chew up hoses in your car.
Word on the street is that they prefer BMWs. Don't have one of them anymore.

Re: Tropical birds
That last pic looks like the bird is getting ready for an attack based on the claw.
