Default Intimate Rainbow
Rainbow Lorikeets, that is. These are probably the most colorful birds I've ever seen. There were several pairs that spent time together preening each other. I hope you enjoy an intimate look at the lorikeets.

Very pretty and colorful and your images are razor sharp. The third is my favorite. I like the attention the one is giving to the other.

Thank you sparda! Yes, it does appear that it is giving "the look" I didn't notice that before.
