Description
Rainbow Lorikeets are a medium to large strikingly coloured lorikeet with like sexes. The head is bright blue with lighter feather shafts. Yellow green collar on the nape, rest of upper parts including tail green. Breast and sides of belly bright yellow ornge barred with dark blue. Large patch of deep blue on centre of belly. Thight, lower flanks and undertail coverts green strongly marked with yellow. Outer wing marked with yellow and outer wing primaries green washed with dull blue. Underwing coverts ornage washed with yellow and narrow yellow band on underside of flight feathers. Eyes are orange red, the bill coral red and legs green-grey. Females are generally a little smaller than males.
Immature birds are duller than adults with a shorter tail, brown eyes and a brown bill with yellow markings near the tip.
Rainbow Lorikeets are usually seen in pairs or flocks and often occur in mixed flocks such as with Scaly-breasted Lorikeets to which they are similar in size and behaviour. Rainbow Lorikeets are strongly gregarious and essentially arboreal.
And across the road they are already starting to yell - my problem is that I feed them!
