Paleheaded (Pale-face) Rosella

Platycercus adscitus

Description:

It is a moderate-size parrot with a pale yellow head, predominantly white cheeks, scalloped black and gold back and pale blue underparts.

Habitat:

This bird is one of the pair that have been visiting me for 4 years now. They stick to one partner for their entire lives...

Notes:

The one is eating sorghum from seeds I planted from bird-seed from local supermarket. The pair are eating dry-Basil seed that I let grow wild for the various seed-eating birds. For sorghum, wheat & others, I throw the birdseed around the fence-line & let nature (& the incredibly-strong, modern grain-seeds) take their course...
