Australian King Parrot (Alisterus scapularis)

I have seen an increasing number of Australian King Parrots (Alisterus scapularis) this week. It must be a good year for them. This one was bold, it flew up the street as I walked down it within 25cm of me. So close I had to resist the urge to duck. It stopped on the pole and waited quietly while I took the photograph.
