Matthew,

It always surprises me when this bird turns up!

Records of a small wild group of Pale-headed Rosella at Royal Park
(Melbourne) have happening for nearly10 years. Last year 3 birds were seen
on the southern edge of the park, and in 2001 I saw a bird near the Zoos
back entrance - and apparently they also feed regularly on fruiting almond
trees in nearby West Brunswick.

Out of interest, exactly where was the bird seen?

Cheers,

Tim
