Ever since I first laid eyes the Collared Lory Phigys solitarius, this stunning species has captivated me; they are just so beautiful. I photographed this gorgeous example during a visit to Loro Parque, in Tenerife, in the Canary Islands. They are not a very common species in captivity by any means, however fortunately there are dedicated breeders achieving success with them, giving me confidence that they are safe in aviculture. If only they were available in Australia!
Agreed....If only!!!
