Oooohhh lovely birds Hayley - the first pic is a male Electus parrot I believe - the 2nd one is a Chattering Lory (had them years ago) and the pink/grey parrot pinching your shoelace is a Roseate or Galah Cockatoo - one of my favourite birds (smile)

This could be a pink parrot or a galah is another name ... ( there is a such thing ) or a pink cockatoo. I call this one the shoe lace eating pink bird.

Glad to help you identify these awesome birds ... ask my anytime for my help !

The first bird is called Jacob(electus), he makes weird noises haha ^^



The stalker who landed on my head when we first got there i had to elave it a pile of fruit and run to get rid only for it to find me half way round! Can anyone tell me what type he/she is?
he's called Elvis (or so I have been calling him everytime I go) he is a red chattering lory, I get what you mean about leaving him a pile of fruit, I don't think there is anything I havn't done with this bird, you seriously don't want himn on you too long, he gets nipp[y and starts to chew your fingers.
underneath him is the blue headed piones I think?
The next one down you questioned is a black headed cauqie, really nice birds normally just happy to sit on you and eat :)

and the pink show lace eater is a rose cockatoo or galah :)

That looks like a fantastic place
they must be males because most of them have nuts in there hands
