Scarlet-chested Parrot

Neophema splendida

Scarlet-chested Parrot adult males have green upperparts, a vivid scarlet breast, and a yellow abdomen, with a compact body and long, tapered tail. Blue wing coverts contrast with darker flight feathers, while the green back and sharply separated breast and belly colors are largely unmarked, without barring or spotting. Extensive deep blue feathers across the forehead and face frame a small, dark gray bill.
