#1993 - Purpureicephalus spurius - Red-capped Parrot

AKA King Parrot (WA only), Western King Parrot, Pileated Parakeet, Hookbill, Blue Parrot (????), djaryl, djarrailboordang, Djar-rail-bur-tong, Djarrybarldung, Jul-u-up, Chelyup, Djalyup, and  djayop. The scientific name means Illegitimate Purple-headed. It’s certainly not purple. But the ‘illegitimate’ bit refers to the fact that the juveniles look very different to their parents (and mostly green).

A medium-sized broad-tailed parrot native to the SW corner of Australia, where it feeds on seeds (preferring Marri), flowers, berries, and the occasional insect. Most closely related to the Mulga Parrot  Psephotellus varius from which it apparently diverged in the Miocene.

Usually seen in groups of 2 to 6, although juveniles may flock together in up to about 100.

Difficult to raise in captivity. Despite being shot as a pest in parts of Western Australia (with little justification), considered a Species of Least Concern.

sketches of one of the local king parrots. they have a very high chroma & light value red colour in real life, which is tricky to handle in watercolour!

@todaysbird I need some help identifying something and I was wondering if you knew something about it;

We’ve got a whole bunch of king parrots that live around the house, and I’ve noticed that some of the adult females have peach-coloured spots on the end of each tail feather while some don’t (none of the males have these spots). I couldn’t really find any sources on it so I was wondering if you knew anything about whether it’s a colour mutation of some kind.

(They’re not the exact same feather because I only collect feathers from the ground, but the one on the left has the peach spot and the one on the right does not. Both are from separate adult females)

Technically two feathers is not a full bird so here ya go

A Superb parrot who knows he is superb.

A vulnerable parrot species from Southern Australia, much like many Australian native species, they have suffered due to a destruction of their habitat and the introduction of invasive predatory animals.

A Galah for @chromatic-lamina, looking soft and yet very attentive - probably moments from mischief, knowing them! Thanks so much for donating to help these kids!

Hiiii! I don’t know if your art reqs are open, but can you draw some non binary birds? Thanks and have a great day!!!!

Neither you or @iamchaos1234 specified exactly what kind of bird or parrot you wanted, so allow me a moment to indulge in some Australian bird propaganda. I hope you enjoy your critters!

Australian Ringneck

The Red Tailed Black cockatoo (Calyptorhynchus banksii) "Ngaoara or Karrak" In the language of the Noongar People. An amazing species of Cockatoo that have a truly beautiful colouring. While the males are solid black with a bright crimson tail, I believe the ladies take the cake on this one. These three gorgeous girls show off not only the starry sky pattern they carry but the fiery energy of their tails.

It is believed that they act as guardians to loved ones, bringing them to rest with the ancestors. Seeing a black cockatoo can also mean that rain is coming, further enforcing their identity as a symbol of change.

They are listed as Vulnerable at the moment due to habitat loss, rare nest hollows and invasive species.
