Can you see the parrot?

Description

Taken with my Camera

Another of the local species of parrots in our Area of Australia.

This is a ringneck or Twenty-eight parrot. It has similar features with the Rainbow Lorikeet (yellow ring on neck and blue head- but different shade of blue), but is slightly larger (I think) and has a different shade of green (more of a blue-green) and a yellow belly. It also lacks the shades of orange-reds the Lorikeets have and has a grey beak rather than an orange beak. Despite this, it is one of the friendliest parrots you can come across (I remember getting some free birdseed (yes these parrots eat seeds as well as fruit) at some nature reserve and feeding them to these parrots- they are really nice and friendly :)

Sorry that I couldn't get a better shot of it. Maybe next time, I'll be luckier
