King Parrot

Alisterus scapularis

Description:

Vivid red parrot with green wings.

Habitat:

Woodland and leafy suburbia

Notes:

Unmistakable to identify this is the male of the species. For a while I thought it was a parent accompanying a juvenile but it turns out that the juvenile was his female mate! Will upload her soon.
