Original – Orange-bellied Parrot (Neophema chrysogaster) male, Melaleuca, Southwest Conservation Area, Tasmania, Australia

Reason: This wild Orange-bellied Parrot is one of the rarest wild birds on earth. The current known wild population during my visit was about 25 (pre-breeding season, so it should go up a bit again). I travelled to Melaleuca, Tasmania, by light aircraft largely to get this photograph (and the female below).
