Colourful Parrot - Queensland, Australia |
The lorikeet and its company descended on a café in Queensland, Australia where the chocolate drink had been left unattended for a few seconds too long. Although the parrot tried its best to fight off fellow milkshake fans, it was forced to relent when a whole flock of birds joined in for a sip. My milkshake! Only the bravest of parrots would dare come between this lorikeet and its drink as the colourful company fought over the chocolate treat
The shake thieves were caught in the act by British holidaymaker Keith Doxsey who had bought the drink for his nephew. The colourful group of rainbow lorikeets seized the opportunity after the shake was left on its own for just a minute and a handful of parrots soon turned into a company of 30. Less than ten minutes later, the lorikeets had finished off the milkshake.
