Platycercus elegans
These bright red and blue rosellas were spotted feeding just before dusk. They usually travel and feed in groups.
Hi lmdang! What you have here are crimson rosellas of the elegans race (there are other races outside of the Melbourne area). Together with the green rosella (P. caledonicus) they form the blue-cheeked rosella complex. Lovely series!
