Nice to see these lovelies in the "wild"....we have them in our local little zoo where you can feed them, but sadly they are enclosed...but the aviary is very large so they can fly...oh well....this is a wonderful capture, Chris.... #7936874

Wonderful capture! The bright colors of the Lorikeets against the "dinner" gives it a great contrast! #7940008

Amazing capture in their own element Chris! I saw some at the Louisville Zoo and everybody was laughing at me, one had messed in my hair :-D We got to feed them sugar water, couldn't get over how cute they are. #7942084
