Eastern Rosella

Eastern Rosella adult males have a red head and upper breast, a yellow lower breast grading into a pale green abdomen, and a strongly multicolored appearance. Black feathers edged with yellow-green form a scalloped pattern across the back and inner wing coverts, contrasting with blue shoulders, blue outer wings, and a blue-green tail. Broad white cheek patches are sharply defined against the surrounding red facial feathers.
