My sojourn to Sherbrooke Forest saw me come across a male Australian King Parrot
The adult male King Parrot is the only Australian Parrot with a completely red head, neck, breast and lower belly.
It grows to 42 cm, 16" and has a green back, wings and tail.
They in the forested regions of the eastern Australia, including eucalyptus wooded areas and in temperate rainforests.
They feed on fruits and seeds gathered from trees or on the ground.
King parrots are occasionally bred in aviaries and kept as calm and relatively quiet household pets if hand raised.
As pets, they have limited "talking" ability and normally prefer not to be handled, but they do bond readily to people and can be very devoted.
