BIRD OF THE TRIP.

Normally this is always difficult but not this trip.

 

Male.

During this Trip to South Australia Thanks to Deb, Ian, Renate, Graham, Greg, Sue and Dave I saw some amazing wildlife. Deb asked me what my Bird of the trip would be knowing there could only really be one choice, the amazing Princess Parrot (Polytelis alexandrae).

Female.

It is a difficult species to see anywhere in Australia but in South Australia it is restricted to just the NW of the state and is highly nomadic.
