We went to Bendigo today, when I saw those birds, but they were a fair way away, so the photos are not as sharp as I wanted them to be. What is it? M-L

Hi Araminta, I believe it is a red rumped parrot.

BTW, they are plenty sharp enough for me!

Thanks Alison,they would be fairly common,as there were quite a few in a paddock,but I don't get them where I live. Next time I will recognize them. M-L

They get called Grass parrots around here - probably because they spend a lot of their time eating in the grass :-)
Cheers,

The rump(s) on the bird(s) in the photos is/are rather orange. I'm wondering if they're juveniles. It's that time of year.
