I'm pretty sure these are a parrot of some kind. Taken at Lysterfield Lake Park in Victoria. I can't find them on the bird finder so am coming here for help. They almost look like oversized budgies. Thanks in advance. Kathie

Thanks. I've not seen them anywhere else but at the lake and roam the ranges a lot. Perhaps I should have searched on the word 'rosella' rather than parrot and I might have been able to find it. I did try the colours and size. I'll probably see them in lots of places now you mention it.

Nice photo Kathie, no matter how many times i see them they still make me say wow.

Thanks Shane. There were 5 of them but I couldn't get a shot with all of them at once - this was the best of the shots I took. The sun was still rising and hadn't reached them yet.
