Eastern Rosella
Platycercus eximius
Eastern Rosellas inhabit open forests, woodland edges, parks, gardens, and farmland across southeastern Australia. They forage mainly on the ground for grass seeds, fruit, blossoms, and buds, often flying up into trees when disturbed. The adult's bright red head, yellow-green body, and blue cheeks make it one of Australia's most distinctive parrots.
