Vik's Gallery:   Superb Parrot (2/4)

PSITTACIFORMES: Psittacidae

Polytelis swainsonii  

Don Hearn, on whose land these birds were, lamented that I was seeing them on a dull day. He said they flashed in sunlight.

I'll be going back to Restdown Wines for another look at these beautiful birds in brighter weather, and I'll be taking sun-glasses.
