Observed clinging to a bird feeder , at the extreme of my old digital camera, i thought at first was a Crimson Rosella by the blue cheek but the red is more lighter Eastern Rosella sort of red ( where here there are quite a few in the woodland ) and the yellow band lower front .. maybe a Lorikeet of some description ?
can anyone identify ?
Looks like an Eastern Rosella.
Birds have known to cross breed and can produce some unusual array of plummage.
Where do you live?
Is it possibly an Adelaide Rosella?
Noice................I think you are closer to the mark stawks. 
(Hope you're well)

Does seem to be an Adelaide Rosella - although more solidly coloured - seems the Adelaide Rosella as depicted above is quite mottled , so maybe a nothern Victorian variant ?

I'm doing OK thanks Kopes. Hoping you're also well these days.
SpoilerSpeaking of cheese, I was watching a show on SBS. A Scandinavian show, and they put cheese in their coffee!
Ewwww
It's a real thing...google it.
