The Night Parrot (Pezoporus occidentalis) is a small parrot endemic to the continent of Australia. It is well known as being one of the most elusive and mysterious birds in the world, with no known sightings of the bird between 1912 and 1979, leading to speculation that it was extinct.
Now an Australian bird enthusiast claims to have caught the rare Australian night parrot on camera. The photos could be the first proof of a living night parrot in more than 100 years. But the news has ruffled some feathers in the bird-watching community because the photographer remains coy on some of the details.
