Wild Bird Wednesday 533 - Crimson Rosella

Of all the colourful birds that I see near my house, the Crimson Rosella (Platycercus elegans) really is one of the most remarkable.

The first time I ever saw one - which is almost 30 year ago - I simply could not believe the depth, or extent , of the red colouration on these birds.  It's a shock that has not really warn off!
