Color Chameleon - The Rainbow Lorikeet's Magical Makeover!
EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting snapshot captured by Eric Lindgren, we witness the incredible transformation of a Rainbow Lorikeet after a refreshing rain-shower in Brisbane, Queensland. As the vibrant bird perches gracefully on a tree branch, its green plumage turns an unexpected shade of brown when saturated with water. But fear not! Like a true fashionista, this feathery diva knows how to rock any color. The magical part? Once the raindrops have dried up and the sun peeks through the clouds, our fashionable friend effortlessly reverts back to its stunning emerald hue. It turns out that green is not just another pigment embedded in these feathers; it's actually a structural color caused by interference with light wavelengths. Talk about being naturally fabulous! This tropical beauty measures up to 35cm in length and boasts an impressive wingspan of 46cm while weighing only 130g. With its playful personality and mesmerizing appearance, it's no wonder why these lorikeets are common sights throughout Australia. So next time you find yourself caught in a downpour or feeling blue on a rainy day, remember the resilient Rainbow Lorikeet who embraces every droplet as an opportunity for reinvention. Just like this feathered fashion icon, let your true colors shine bright!
