They can be found singly, in pairs or in flocks, throughout their habitat which is open ground with occasional trees. They pair for long periods, if not for life, and nest in hollows in trees or, occasionally, caves, where they lay 2 to 5 eggs. Fledglings are immediately airworthy although landing can be a problem. Only one in ten galahs reach sexual maturity. They have enjoyed the pastoralisation of the Australian outback with its increase in  surface water through the use of wind-powered bores to bring artesian water to the surface. (It is common to see cattle competing with a multitude of galahs at the troughs beneath an iconic Australian windmill)
