Spotted
The Red-flanked Lorikeet is a highly colorful species endemic to Sulawesi, Indonesia. It is characterized by its green plumage, red cheeks, blue crown, and prominent red flank patches.
Where to spot
Lowland and hill forests of Sulawesi, Indonesia.
How to spot
Look for fast-flying, brightly colored flocks in flowering trees. Their loud, shrill calls are often heard well before they are seen.
When to spot
Year-round, active from dawn to dusk.
This lorikeet's scientific name, 'histrio,' means actor or mime, perhaps referring to its elaborate and varied plumage that almost seems like a costume.
