Rainbow Lorikeet on the Golden Penda in the Noosa hinterland, Queensland, Australia.

I was very lucky that the Golden Penda is so attractive to the native birds that this Lorikeet stayed around for a while.

These aptly named beautiful Australian birds, the Rainbow Lorikeets, parrots, have incredibly brightly coloured feathers, and a distinctive screeching call.

In Noosa they fly between the Noosa River and the Hinterland feeding on the rich variety of flowering/fruiting trees and shrubs.
