In response to Nick Payne, I absolutely agree with him that the ringneck 
(twenty eight) parrot is disappearing around Perth.  That bird was one of the 
birds mostly seen, and heard, when I was growing up in Perth, earlier than 
Nick.  Each time I go there now, there seem to be more rainbow lorikeets which 
must be taking over nesting hollows of the resident parrots.  I would say that 
there are now many more lorikeets than there ever were ringnecks
