Bourke's Parrot is a small, gentle parrot native to arid and semi-arid regions of Australia. Its soft brown, pink, and blue plumage allows it to blend seamlessly with the sparse vegetation of its habitat.
Where to spot
Found in arid and semi-arid acacia woodlands and mulga scrublands across inland Australia.
How to spot
Look for its subtle pinkish-brown and blue coloration as it forages on the ground or sips water. Listen for its soft, melodious chirping calls, especially at sunrise and sunset.
When to spot
Crepuscular; most active at dawn and dusk when foraging for seeds on the ground. They are resident birds.
