AUSTRALIAN RINGNECK IN THE OUTBACK. 4K Footage of this beautiful Parrot feeding and drinking.

The Australian Ringneck is a widespread species of Parrot, found in the drier regions across the continent. There are four sub species. I have shown the Barnardi Sub sp here. The Males are somewhat brighter than the females.
This species tends to congregate in pairs and small family parties.
I filmed these particular clips in Western Queensland, Australia, 2022.
Australia certainly is the Land of Parrots.
This from Birdlife:
The Australian Ringneck is a large parrot, differing in size and plumage in different regions. There are four subspecies, in two main groups. All are mostly green, with an obvious yellow band on the hind-neck. Members of the Mallee group have a mainly green head and neck. The Mallee Ringneck, subspecies barnardi, has a more varied green and blue body, with more yellow underneath and a red frontal band. The Cloncurry subspecies macgillivrayi has much more yellow and pale turquoise around the face. The Port Lincoln group all have dark hoods and are mainly green. The Twenty Eight Parrot, subspecies semitorquatus, has a red frontal band and is all green underneath. The Port Lincoln Parrot, subspecies zonarius, is green and yellow underneath. All subspecies hybridise widely. They are quiet when feeding, but when disturbed fly off with loud alarm calls. Their flight is swift and undulating. This species is also known as the Mallee, Port Lincoln, Banded or Cloncurry Ringneck, Twenty Eight Parrot or Buln Buln.

Thanks for watching. The Ringnecks are stunning Parrots.

We get the Mallee's in the opal fields around Lightning Ridge, they get quite friendly eating out of our hands, so do the Red Wing's, my favourite in that area are the Major Mitchel's tho, it is such a treat to see them up close, cheers

[@TimSiggs]

That would be spectacular. I'm a little jealous.
