An unexpected and colourful visitor to a Thorpe couple's birdfeeder was a bright alternative to the average starling.
This stunning golden mantle rosella first appeared in the back garden of bird lovers Kim Fletcher and Clive Anderson at their home in Burway Crescent, Laleham Reach in June, but had returned several times since.
Ms Fletcher said they regularly had green parakeets and other birds visiting, but this was a visitor completely out of the blue.
She explained: "Clive was working at his computer when he heard an unusual bird call, he knew it was different as we are avid bird lovers and have several feeders in the back garden, visited daily by hoards of birds and a few hungry squirrels.
