Birds seen whilst at home or on your travels

My friend likes to take her 4 year old daughter to see a man that has aviary in his garden with budgerigars and finches. The little girl loves to see the birds fly around. When I visited Australia I wondered if I would see any wild budgerigars however I didn't. Instead I saw other types of birds like Cockatoos in Sydney's botanical garden. I stayed at a youth hostel in the bush and the balcony was rich with bird life. A cockatoo stole a boy's piece of toast at breakfast time. In Queensland I saw the colorful Rainbow Lorikeet and found it ever so beautiful. Years later in Western Australia I saw the pink and gray parrot called the Rose Breasted Cockatoo. Wow! Even better I liked seeing the Port Lincoln Parakeet. It is known as the 28 bird due to its colors and it noises. In a more recent year I have seen blue and gold macaws and Toucan birds at a bird park in Brazil. Wow! My aunt used to have a Cockatiel and my family used to have a White Fronted Amazon Parrot. I have happy memories of them. Which birds have you seen at home and on your travels? Do you have any local places where you can see many birds?
