I hope they don’t establish themselves in Australia. The only one I’ve seen in
Australia was green (in Wagga perhaps?), as were the ones I saw in Japan, where
feral populations are established.

Interesting question why they haven’t established themselves in Australia?

While visiting the Pioneer Park Museum in Dalby yesterday I got to discussing
the local birds with the owner. She asked me if I could identify the bird in
the attached photo (I hope the photo’s not too big) which has visited the
park’s bird feeder in recent times. Whilst I was unable to provide an answer I
assured her I was in contact with some experts who could …
I believe it’s leucistic, probably a parakeet of some kind, an escapee from
someone’s aviary. Anyone able to help please?
