You are so right Sally, it is a Rosella! I believe there was a private collection of Australian parrots residing in Auckland some years ago, but they were let loose by an animal do-gooder – this little guy could be related to that lot. I definitely know Loriketes (sp) were involved. It is so strange to see him in a stark, leafless environment, but super in highlighting this wonderfully coloured bird. Brilliantly captured, great contrast.
What a terrific shot. Great job being quick to capture it!
Ha-ha, very nice! The surroundings is empty, the smartly parrot has collected all the colors! Super capture!
A wonderful contrast between the grey patterned background and the parrot.
An unbelievable shot!
Wow, I wonder how it found itself across the Tasman!
This is an Eastern Rosella of the kind found on Arnotts biscuits. http://www.catopartners.co.nz/files/images/Arnotts_2.jpg
