    These birds are intelligent and have great personalities. They're very common in Eastern Australia and can be seen flying around at high speed and chattering away in trees while they feed. This guy was shot in a Bottle-brush tree situated in a suburban street in North Wollongong. Posted 12 years ago, modified 12 years ago

      I've only seen them in zoos. Must be great to have such cheerful birds around in the wild. Posted 12 years ago
