Mulga Parrot by Jay Packer Via Flickr: The parrots might be the most spectacular group of birds in Australia and Mulga Parrot was no exception. One of the things that made Australian parrots feel different from parrots in other parts of the world was the degree to which they occurred in a wide range of habitats not limited to tall forests, including short and scrubby habitats and urban habitats. Some species are backyard birds. After searching all day on a long but comfortable winter hike through the Outback, we finally managed to find a single Mulga Parrot! It did not disappoint.
