Rainbow Lorikeet
Always a fan of any bird, this amazing Rainbow Lorikeet has one of the brightest combination of colored feathers – turquoise, lavender, purple to black, orange, green to yellow. I met this particular bird in an aviary where you could feed him from a paper cup of nectar. The trick was fending off the flock that descended upon the visitors when it was feeding time.

Attention
A red macaw has ruffled up his neck feathers and pulled his head back. His full attention is dead center and right on you. “Well?” he seems to ask, “What do you want?” He has not quite decided if you are bothering him yet.

The red macaw is a Red-and-green Macaw, also known as the Green-winged Macaw (Ara chloropterus).

Macaws, Interrupted

 

Macaws, Interrupted

Macaws, Interrupted
Two macaws sit close together on branch with their backs turned as if they had been conversing privately. Something drew their attention; they paused to look over their shoulders to see what it was. It is hard to believe the chatty parrots stopped for even a moment.

The red macaw is a Red-and-green Macaw, also known as the Green-winged Macaw (Ara chloropterus). The blue macaw is a Blue-and-yellow Macaw, also known as the Blue-and-gold Macaw (Ara ararauna).
