Colour..Mint

Rainbow lorikeet;
Even though they are considered pests they are a work of art to look at and are actually quite friendly creatures.
Their feathers have a range of different colors hence their name.
They truly are a living rainbow with their green, blue, purple, red, orange and yellow feathers.
The tips of their tongues have tiny hairs so that they can get the nectar out of fruits more easily.
Rainbow Lorikeets grow to be about 30 centimeters, (12 inches) tall and are very fast fliers.
They rest in trees in groups of hundreds and feed usually in groups of less than 20. When the birds mate they will leave the group and build themselves a nest in a hole in a tree hollow.
The female lorikeet will lay two white eggs which she will sit on for about 25 days with the company of the male bird.
Together they will take care of the babies once they hatch until they leave the nest after about 8 weeks.
Afterwards the young bird will join other unmated birds in the communal roost so that the parents can have new babies.
After two years these young birds have reached sexual maturity and will in turn find a mate and have a family of their own.
These birds are known to live about 20 years in the wild.
