Eastern Rosella

Platycercus eximius

The eastern rosella is a parrot native and endemic to south-eastern Australia. It was first introduced to New Zealand in cages, and individuals were subsequently intentionally released or accidentally escaped into the wild. In New Zealand, it is now established in the North Island and in the hills around Dunedin in the South Island.
