π¦Β Black Lories are said to be amongst the gentlest and best natured of the lories. However, their shrill cries are said to be a disturbance.
π¦Β The Rainbow Lorikeet is a parrot common to the eastern seaboard of Australia and also Tasmania. In some places, wild lorikeets are so used to humans that they can be hand-fed. They mainly feed on pollen and nectar.
