 | | The Paradise Parrot (''Psephotus pulcherrimus'') was an unusually colourful medium-sized parrot native to the grassy woodlands of the Queensland - New South Wales border area of Australia. |
 | | Paradise Parrots lived in pairs or small family groups, making their nests in hollowed-out termite mounds and similar places, often at or near ground level, and feeding, so far as is known, almost exclusively on grass seeds. |
 | | The plumage was extraordinarily colorful, even by parrot standards, a mixture of turquoise, aqua, scarlet, fl and brown, and the tail almost the same length as the body—something difficult to understand in a bird that, although a rapid, undulating flyer, spent almost all of its time on the ground. |
