December 27, 2020 - Black-capped Lory, Western Black-capped Lory, or Tricolored Lory (Lorius lory)
These lories are found in forests and swamps in parts of Indonesia and Papua New Guinea. They eat pollen, nectar, flowers, fruit, and some insects, usually foraging in pairs or small groups in the middle story and canopy of the forest. Breeding between May and October, females lay clutches of two eggs in tree cavities.
