I’ve been wanting to get some pictures of this bird for a while. This is an Eastern Rosella – or as it is called in our house a Tomato Sauce Rosella because of brand of sauce we have here.This bird was one of a group that were much more cooperative than normal – in other words they did not just dash off into the distance as soon as humans approach.
This is not exactly a perfect example of this bird – the males on full plumage are a sight to see, but it’s still a good bird. The group of rosellas did not hang around for very long – I have not seen them for a few days, so they may have just been passing though.

Enjoy the birds.

Great looker!! Boom & Gary of the Vermilon River, Canada.
Nice photo of the "tomato sauce" bird! I've seen them plenty of times of course - but not since I have had a good camera :-(
. . . and it is the only decent brand of tomato sauce there is too. Great capture Strwart, I know just how wary they are.
What a brilliant bird, Stewart! I am envious - most of ours are much more discrete in their colors.
Gorgeous bird, excellent composition, great picture!
What a gorgeous bird! Cool setting for it to be perched on too!
Gorgeous shot, Stewart!
Great shot of the beautiful Rosella!
