A long billed corella. Very nice.

cute :)

Are they just wild, roaming about everywhere?

Some parrots are. You see lots of galahs, often in huge flocks on a football feild for instance. These long billed corellas have a much more limited range (there are fewer of them) but in the right place, there might be 50 of them grazing on the lawn. Some of the white ones (little corellas) are in huge flocks and smother a group of trees or a huge patch of grass all at once and make a huge racket.

That's amazing! Beats the Sparrows and Blackbirds you get in the UK. If I saw that here I'd think it had escaped from someone's house!
