An Australian bird, Christine. According to Wikipedia, they have been imported to New Zealand and Norfolk Island. I was fortunate to get this peek through my back window. 🙂
Red always looks great against the green background but the rosellas have that extra breathtaking colour schemes! I just happened to catch sight of him through my back window.

Lovely! I don’t think we have them in the U.S.

He’s absolutely gorgeous. Would look fantastic on black velvet background.
