These birds are considered a nuisance by Ministry of agriculture & fisheries, but they are bully birds. Beautiful as they are. I think from Australia blown across by the equinox winds or else pets let free.
They talk and seem to fly in packs. Dodgy birds to photograph at the best of times. Argument I’ve amongst themselves.
I think you need to go quietly and not take anything for granted with any animal met for the first time.

So colorful! It’s a pity they are nuisance.
Rosealas are natives of Australia. Some Australian birds are blown across the Tasman Sea by the Equinox winds.
A boat takes 3-4 days from New Zealand to Australia, but I am not sure how fast a bird arrives..
They are bully birds..People like me still like them any way, cant help it.
I see these in pet stores and zoos often.
Yes, they are in our pet stores too.
We have green coloured parrots and they are always seen in our garden. They go for bilimbis and star fruits I have clicked a few photos but late evening hiding from them.
wow what a bright bird!
i love parrots but they are not native to my parts of the US.
