Kay's Gallery:   Princess Parrot (1/4)

PSITTACIFORMES: Psittacidae

Polytelis alexandrae  

I managed a rushed trip to Newhaven Station after reading reports that these parrots had been seen there. After an anxious wait at sunrise I saw a few of the flock well off in the distance.

Finally a flock of forty-two birds flew towards me, calling loudly. I was in awe as they flew right over my head and only remembered to take a photo at the last second!
