Yesterday I had to park up in the back carpark at work again, and again I was rewarded.
As I was walking back to my car past one of the residential gardens I spotted the unmistakeable red gleam of a crimson rosella in one of the trees. These are by no means a rare member of the parrot family but I have had less than five snatched glimpses of them in my time spent here in the Sydney area so far. This said, I immediately got out my camera as he/she seemed in no hurry to fly off.
As usual the rosella did not want to play ball and kept turning its head as I took the shot but I thought I would post the photos anyway as it was a highlight of my day. As I got closer I noticed there was actually two of them in the tree and by the look of it one of them must have been a younger one. The second snap shows the first one feeding the other. As I said, not great pictures, but it gives you an idea of how startlingly bright and colourful they are

do u sell rossellas
Hi Zane, no, sorry, I don’t sell them. I just enjoy observing them in their natural habitat.
They are beautiful Alex , the photos are good enough to show that and nice I think because they are natural. Lovely to see such sights in the normal day to day life, definitely a highlight.
Thank you. Yes, spotting the bird life here definitely ranks as a highlight in my Aussie life. Rosellas are always a bit on the elusive side but we currently get regular visits by a pair of King Parrots. I haven’t managed to get a pictue of them half as good as these though. You can hear them a lot more easily than you can see them as they have a very distinctive high pitched whistle.
