Spotted
The Red-fronted Lorikeet is a small, striking parrot with brilliant green plumage and distinctive red markings on its head. It is native to tropical forests of New Guinea and nearby islands.
Where to spot
Lowland and hill forests of New Guinea and the Bismarck Archipelago.
How to spot
Scan flowering trees for activity. These birds can be inconspicuous despite their bright colors, so listen for their rapid, high-pitched calls.

Active during daylight hours, particularly in the morning and late afternoon.
Like many lorikeets, it possesses a specialized brush-tipped tongue adapted for efficiently feeding on nectar and pollen from flowers.
