Wonderful capture Steven and what are they doing about breeding and looking after these beautiful birds and if they keep pumping water out of the river and don’t get rid of feral animals they will be lost for ever.
Steve Sass replied
So true Noelene. Thanks for your comment, and your purchase!

Great shot Of this gorgeous Parrot,
Sometime’s I think that it is a good thing That
We can breed this Beautiful Parrot in captivety,
As it would be a shame to lose them forever In the Wild.
Steve Sass replied
Yes, it is good, but the aim should be not to let this happen in the first place I guess, then manage the landscape, to halt the decline.
