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.
A lane of Thorpe Road was blocked after a tractor dropped a hay bale around 12.30pm on Monday, June 29.
Surrey Police closed the lane to help clear the hay from the road.
