The Australian Galah

Galah

 

Many experts call Australia the Land of Parrots. There is even a DVD of the same name about our vast range of beautiful parrots. They are in abundance throughout all habitats in this country. Possibly the most recognisable of all our parrots is the Galah. They are common throughout Australia, often occurring in flocks numbering up to 1000s, especially in the cereal growing rural areas. They are also a popular pet and can be taught to say a dozen or more words.

You can see more photos of our beautiful parrots - and many other Australian birds on my other site Trevor's Birding here.
