Leaf Lorikeet (Trichoglossus weberi)
About the Leaf Lorikeet
The leaf lorikeet (Trichoglossus weberi), also known as the Flores lorikeet or Weber's lorikeet, is a species of parrot that is endemic to the Indonesian island of Flores. It was previously considered a subspecies of the rainbow lorikeet, but following a review in 1997, it is increasingly treated as a separate species. Unlike all other members of the rainbow lorikeet group, the leaf lorikeet has an overall green plumage, with only a paler lime green chest and collar. With a total length of approximately 23 cm (9 in), it is the smallest member of the rainbow lorikeet group.
