Description
The Eastern Rosella is vividly coloured — red and yellow and blue and green and black. When rosellas are feeding on the ground among the grass or among the foliage in the treetops they can be very difficult to see, often seeming to disappear completely into the background. Their colourful plumage is patterned so that it creates an extremely effective camouflage which assists the birds to avoid detection by potential predators.
