There don't seem to be Galahs, Cockatoos or Rosellas around here feasting on grasses and seeds,much. [EDIT: two Galahs spotted in the park foraging on the ground on the way home one night this week.] But there are plenty of Lorikeets, although they don't hang around to be friendly. Instead they flash past at warp speed, if you are lucky you see a flash of color. Mostly you just hear them, or catch a glimpse of colour in the gum trees.
There are also Kookaburras in the trees in the park and around the school and neighbourhood ! Millions more Crows too, and Ibis (Bin Chickens). I haven't seen any Ibis scavenging on the ground, but they look very elegant as they fly overhead morning and evening on their way to their hunting grounds.
People's gardens and parklands are a constant explosion of colour. So many trees and plants to learn the names of. Wattle, Bouganvillea, Silk trees, Eucalypts, Jacaranda, Poinciana, Frangipani (in way more colours than I thought there were)...Grass is green.
