Help Identifying Plant !

Couldn't help but snap this shot this morning. The yellow caught my eye. I have no idea what plant that is outside in my backyard but it's stunning.

 Does anyone know what it is?? 

It's perfectly matched to my darling Cockatoo Cushion Covers.

Hope you are all having a great week.

Take a look what I saw out front this morning.
Actually, every morning when I wake up, I always see something different out front. But one thing that always captures me are the wildlife we see at our place. This morning was just magnificent. I woke to see a family of Kookaburra's sitting in my Poinciana tree. They were playing in the sun. I watched them for awhile whilst drinking my coffee. That's when I knew it was already a great day! Even if nothing else happened all day!
