Three Rainbow Lorikeets

Trichoglossus haematodus

I should have checked the Thursday Challenge before I posted yesterday's entry
for the 4-colour February Challenge, but we have a family of about a dozen of these
who frequent our seed dish daily, no problem for me to take a few more shots
this morning so I could feature these birds for the challenge of "RAINBOW"

Nice shot, Yvonne. On hot days we keep a dish of nectar solution for them outside the kitchen window. It certainly attracts them ... but they like to roll around in it!
