Female King Parrot (Alisterus scapularis)

This bird was on the feeder where I was staying while in Oz..hence the refection in her eye.
I feel it is cheating somewhat, but it was a wild bird, and wouldn't let me approach too closely.

This, like the vast majority of my pics has been heavily cropped - the original is of the whole body. Admittedly close-up.
