We are still ensconced on our hill above Agnes Water. The weather has been terrible. An intense low pressure system centred off to our north has been wreaking havoc on the coast of Queensland. We have got off quite lightly compared to Townsville where flooding has caused mass evacuation and, sadly, loss of life. We have explored the nearby country and made the most of our time.
I had to take just a few steps from the van to take these shots of a beautiful Pale-headed Rosella.
It’s all there, honest. You just have to click on the gallery.
This is a species restricted to eastern Queensland and north-eastern New South Wales. They usually move about as pairs and they are fond of grass seed. They are rarely as confiding as this one.
