Description
This lovely trio of parrots (lorikeets) were busily searching for insects and preening when I spotted them at Butterfly World in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. They were a joy to watch as they went about their business. It was fun capturing them in their natural environment!
The usage of the terms "lory" and "lorikeet" is subjective, like the usage of "parrot" and "parakeet". Species with longer tapering tails are generally referred to as "lorikeets", while species with short blunt tails are generally referred to as "lories".
