How very trusting. I have three Green rosellas in my back yard right now eating grass seeds (oops make that seven, I missed four), and if I so much as twitch they are gone. I guess since the Crimson doesn't blend in, it's more bold. Also, I can here the Brown falcon, so the rosellas must be on high alert.
What a beautiful parrot!
