Calilasseia:

Meanwhile, returning to Lainey and her bird table visitors ... :)

When my brother was alive, and living in the Brisbane area, he used to have all sorts of exotica turning up in his garden in the morning ... Galahs, Rosellas, the occasional flock of wild Budgies, he used to have a veritable feathered rainbow turning up to feast upon the bird table offerings!

However, he told me that while the plumage of many of these birds is glorious to behold, the racket they make is, ahem, an acquired taste. Rosellas can be racuous to the point of inducing deafness if they gather for any length of time, and Galahs, of course, have a legendary reputation for noisy squawking. I found out the hard way about Rosellas, when someone living about half a mile or so from my home decided to keep a flock of these in a large back garden aviary. The birds in question were Eastern Rosellas - achingly beautiful rainbow coloured plumage, but boy, could those things pump out the decibels!
