I will be heading back to Australia Sept 19 - Oct 4th 2015 to see more Lorikeets! We should see almost all species! How cool is that! Check it out here if you like. Love to have some AA people on the tour!
Australia 2015 Parrot Tour |

In the meantime here is a quiz. See how many of these lorikeets I filmed in 2008/2009 you can identify. These stills are from my film on Australian Parrots. Australian Parrots | I traveled around Australia for 6 months filming the country's amazing parrot species

Ready get your pencils ready! Begin!

I will let someone else answer first, as I know the last four, but the first is hard to view due to blurring, is there a clearer picture?

My lorys are such stunning complex hyper fascinating little birds I could watch them all day and their characteristics ...
I have a yellow streak,blue streak and a blue mountain
I had a duvy(Duncan ...he was so wonderful hurts my heart to think of him)
My dream would be to go to Australia to see all of the Bird species and wildlife
Everything about Australia fascinates and excites me
