🌏 Rainbow lorikeet (Trichoglossus moluccanus)

The rainbow lorikeet is a vibrantly coloured parrot with a blue head and belly, green wings and back, and an orange/yellow breast, complemented by a bright red beak. Both sexes share this striking appearance. Native to eastern Australia, from Queensland to South Australia, it also has introduced populations in Western Australia. They inhabit rainforests, woodlands, and urban areas. Rainbow lorikeets are highly social, typically seen in noisy, fast-moving flocks, and often gather in large communal roosts at dusk. They primarily feed on nectar and pollen, using a specialized brush-tipped tongue, and are known for their acrobatic feeding behaviors, often hanging upside down.

Two subspecies are recognised.

Conservation status: Least Concern (IUCN 3.1)
