Help identifying please

Hi folks.

Can you please assist me with identifying the bird in my avatar?

I saw a few of these in a park in the suburbs of Melbourne. Apologies for the poor quality: it was dark, and my zoom is not that good.

Thanks!

Tassie

Gidday mate.....thats a Male Red Rumped Parrot.

Hi folks, sorry about posting pics in my avatar.
I just realised how confusing these older threads can be if you read it and see that it clearly does not match up to my avatar.

Apologies.
I will get my head around posting pics properly soon.
But for the mean time, disregard this thread please. :)

Looks like a juvenile Crimson Rosella to me.

I am also seeing a koala. But he apologised about it above you.

Yeah I read that, but wondered how birdguy123 managed to indentify it as a crimson.

Yup, I did apologise earlier about the unintended confusion that arose with my less than efficient means of posting different bird pics in my avatar.

As I can't delete threads or posts, I changed my avatar to something that was definitely not a bird, and I learnt how to post pics!!

Check my other thread where I experimented with posting pics.

To satisfy everyone, I shall also post the red rumped parrot and baby rosella that were originally in my avatar. ;)
