Do people ever have these for pets? Or are they protected?
Thanks for looking, Carhryn. They are not protected as there are zillions of them. There is no reason why one couldn't be kept in a cage privately, but I have never seen one. Because they are so common & sociable with humans, I couldn't imagine anyone wanting to keep one as a pet.
Such a beautiful bird fantastic pictures well done.Can`t wait for my next trip early next year Australia New Zealand Thailand just love all the wildlife.

It would be a shame to put one in a cage for sure! They should be free.
