Wow, nice work Stuart! Went to the Murray River not so long ago and saw many Mallee Ringnecks which are similar, but they wouldnt pose for a photo for me :( Also found race Flaveolus of the Crimson Rosella which was exciting! But again, they wouldnt let me take a photo.

Up here, I’ve found the Mulgas quite shy, and not so much the Ringnecks—funny how birds have different shyness levels at different places! Thanks Andrea
