Pale headed Rosella seen twice within 5 minutes at approx 7 am today. First time flying away from me and I thought that the colour of the rear view was wrong for an Eastern Rosella. Then seen clearly with the naked eye sitting in a tree just off my balcony. It did not follow the Crimson Rosellas into the seed on my balcony. Disappeared when a general alarm was raised by the magpies. Location is the vicinity of the units to the south of Torrens shops, corner of Basedow and Beasley Streets. Would it be an escapee? A first for my GBS. Ruth
