This particular specimen does not go with my face '-'
Wow... Sorry for this, and, thank's.
This happened because in Brazil we call "Calopsita" and did not know how it was in English. And also, "Cockatiel" in Brazil means "Periguito", a another bird ...
Please update this sighting, It is a Cockatiel (Nymphicus hollandicus) a native bird from Australia. Now you have the right common name and the right scientific name, please correct it. Thank you!
