Description
i made a lorikeet plushie using an edited version of 's baby bird pattern! i basically never make plushies that aren’t my own pattern, but her pattern is so adorable!
this is for my boyfriend for christmas. we go to the zoo often, and always spend a ton of time feeding the lorikeets. unfortunately this was a bit of a rush job since i had to get it done in a short amount of time while we weren’t at home together (which is basically never).
this plush is made from peacock,cherry, canary, kelly green, and silver minky. entirely machine sewn except for the feet which are hand sewn on.
i also treated myself to a dslr on black friday. i know basically nothing about photography, so it’ll be a learning process for sure!

June Flock Together Feature - Lively LORIES!
Lories, also called lorikeets, are a standout group among parrots. They are among the most colorful parrot species and they have a unique brush-like tongue, which allows them to remove pollen and nectar from flower blossoms. With nectar as a main part of its diet, it’s no surprise that lories are high-energy birds.
Native Region / Natural Habitat - Australasia. There are approximately 55 different species of these birds in the world, but only about 12 are kept as pets. These varieties can be divided into two main groups - the Small Australian Lorikeets, and the larger tropical lorikeets. The smaller varieties include the Purple-crowned and Little lorikeet which are around 19cm in length. They are fairly quiet, tend not to talk and have a lifespan of around 10 years. Tropical lories live up to 20 years and are around 30cm long; the most popular varieties
