Rainbow Lorikeet in Singapore



This is a rainbow lorikeet. I ran into him at the Jurong bird park in Singapore. The birds are housed in an enormous walk in aviary. It covers the side of a hill and is huge. Inside is a wide variety of Australian lorikeets. For a small fee of about $2, you can get a bowl of sugar water to feed the critters. They're well habituated top people and will stand on your arm, head or shoulder if you let them. Very cute.
