Field Notes

Notes:

A very scruffy looking Princess Parrot in the Tamworth Marsupial Park! These parrots are from Central Australia and were (according to Wikipedia) named in honour of Princess Alexandra of Denmark, who later married the Prince of Wales Edward VII and eventually became the Queen of England.
