Around 300 species of the parrot family have been recorded throughout the world, extending from the tropics to the subtropical and colder parts of the Southern Hemisphere. 56 species are found in Australia, and only five of these are found elsewhere in the world. The parrot family includes cockatoos, lorikeets, rosellas, ringnecks and budgerigars.
Fact about Native Parrots
Lorikeets display highly aggressive courtship rituals. When trying to attract a female, the male whirrs his wings, bobs his head, and shrieks with all his might.
