Hi, I’m Newton

Hey there, Newton here, a sweet-natured, vibrantly brilliant rainbow lorikeet. Did you know that we are long-lived, medium-sized parrots that grow to just over 30cm long from the beak to the tail-feathers. My species are real busybodies that like to be in the midst of the action. I'm also a very sweet, affectionate bird who's known for comical antics with a friendly personality, and I really value interaction with my human family. Intelligence is another feature: I can learn tricks and other behaviours, with ease. We're great escape artists too, so make sure there's a good lock on the enclosure!

If you think I might be the perfect fit for your family, please fill out an adoption application today! https://www.rspcaqld.org.au/expression-of-interest-to-adopt
