Description
Lories and Lorikeets – the brush-tongued parrots. Written by Rosemary Low.
Comprehensive in its treatment of a very specialized group of birds, Rosemary Low's Lories and Lorikeets is far and away the most valuably instructive text ever produced about the beautiful-and the Lories and Lorikeets are colourful even by the high standards normally applied to psittacine birds -birds known collectively as the the brush-tongued parrots.
Traditionally given just passing mentions in most books about parrots, the lories and lorikeets are here given their due by an expert. Details about accommodations, feeding, breeding, hand-rearing and natural history are given, and descriptions are provided for every species and subspecies. A wide range of full-colour photographs protrays the birds at their true-to-life best.
