Crimson Rosella

Platycercus elegans

Description:

Crimson Rosellas are normally encountered in small flocks and are easily attracted to garden seed trays. Once familiar with humans, they will accept hand held food. Natural foods include seeds of eucalypts, grasses and shrubs, as well as insects and some tree blossoms.

Habitat:

Throughout its range, the Crimson Rosella is commonly associated with tall eucalypt and wetter forests.

Notes:

Found this little guy on a friends balcony during a BBQ, he obviously smelt the food!
