Hi Matthew, Hope your new hobby grows well and long on you. I suggest you join the BOCA and / or RAOU (Birds Australia) - both based in Melbourne) to give maximum benefit to your learning and to continue this. The Pale-headed Rosella and the Eastern Rosella are very close relatives. From your description it would have to be a Pale-headed Rosella and being in suburban Melbourne would be an aviary escape. This is not uncommon for a whole range of parrots, finches, etc. Philip |
