Observation details
Pair with nest. Red-capped Parrots are endemic to south-western Australia. This pair was nesting in a hollow of a dead Swamp Banksia (Banksia littoralis). The duller female spent considerable time in the nest hollow, sometimes emerging alone or when the brightly-coloured male arrived. On one occasion she was bothered by feral Honeybees – she snapped at the bees when they came too close.
