King Parrot vs Rainbow Lorikeet by terryliv

King Parrot vs Rainbow Lorikeet

This lorikeet went and joined the two parrots and they didn't seem to be scared off by it. I suspect it was a female.
Now I ask all you 365ers who are hooked on Rainbow Lorikeets to compare the two birds. W Which one is more beautiful. The lorikeets are colourful, loud, raucous, extroverted and full of personality while the King parrots are more refined and just ooze style and elegance. Like comparing Mylie Cyrus with Angelina Jolie or Justin Bieber with Michael Buble.

I can't choose. Although I do prefer quieter elegance. It's hard to believe that the king parrots are scared by the smaller lorikeets.

What color flocks to your feeders. Such a plethora of design and brightness. LOL on your musical comparisons. Those truly tell the difference between these two bird species. (I'm a definite Michael Buble fan.) I've not had the pleasure of being around a King Parrot so can't speak from experience but something tells me these beauties are wonderful birds.
