Rainbow Lorikeet

The Rainbow Lorikeet (*Trichoglossus moluccanus*) is one of Australia’s most abundant birds and widely recognised parrots, renowned for its dazzling array of colours and loud, social behaviour. This medium-sized parrot is a familiar sight in both urban and natural environments across eastern and northern Australia, often seen in noisy flocks feeding in flowering trees or gathering at communal roosts. Their adaptability and striking appearance have made them a beloved symbol of Australian birdlife.
