Field Guide
Little Lorikeet
4 sections
The Little Lorikeet is Australia’s smallest lorikeet, a vibrant green parrot that often goes unnoticed as it zips through the treetops. Although tiny, these birds are easily identified by their bright red face and rapid, high-pitched calls. They are most often seen darting among the flowering eucalypt canopies of eastern and southeastern Australia, where their swift movements and camouflaged plumage make them a rewarding find for keen birdwatchers.
