Lorikeets, such as Rainbow lorikeet, Scaly-breasted lorikeet

Other parrots, such as Bourke's parrot, Budgerigar (budgie), ground parrot, Turquoise parrot (turquoisine), Green parrot, Regent parrot, Rock parrot, Mulga parrot

There are other parrots within these groups, but they are too many to list.
