Thanks for the ID.. I just fund it as well!!!
They're one of the Neophema genus that contains some of the most colorful and popular cage birds in Australia. It also includes the Orange bellied parrot (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orange-bellied_Parrot), which at fewer than 50 wild birds is one of the most endangered creatures on the planet.
