I've Got a Messy Beak

This cheeky rainbow lorikeet chased off the scaly breasted lorikeets the other day because he wanted to have a drink and wash his beak at the bird bath.

I told him he was being naughty but as you can see by the expression on his face, he didn't seem to care ha ha

Lorikeets are very bossy, and this one was so cheeky. He did have a bath in the birdbath though, so I guess his beak ended up very clean.
