KING PARROT!!!!!
Male Australian king Parrots are the only Australian parrots with a completely red head. Females are similar to males except that they have a completely green head and breast. Both sexes have a red belly and a green back, with green wings and a long green tail. King parrots are normally encountered in pairs or family groups. King-Parrots are found along the east coast and ranges of Australia, ranging from Cook town in Queensland through to Port Campbell in Victoria. King-Parrots are usually found in rain forests or wet chlorophyll forests. The King-Parrot mostly forages in trees for seeds and fruit.
King-Parrots lay their eggs on a bed of decayed wood-dust at the bottom of a deep hollow in the trunk of a tree. Often the entrance is high in the tree (10 m) but the eggs are near the ground (0.5 m).
