A rare hybrid with a red body, green wings, and several small blue and black markings. The bird’s faded black cap and yellow-green tail feathers are common features present in many yellow-collared hybrids. The pictured bird’s bib feathers have yet to fully grow in, so it’s unclear what they will look like in an adult
A hybrid first bred at Catalina Island Bird Park around 1937. They have roughly equal amounts of red-orange (crown and chest), green (wings), and dark blue (cheeks and belly) coloration on their bodies. Rainbow x red lories are very difficult to differentiate from coconut x red lory hybrids based on their plumage alone.
A red hybrid with green wing feathers, “fuzzy” blue ears, and a dark navy belly; though some birds may differ by having more or less blue and green in these areas. Coconut and red lory hybrids are somewhat common compared to other lory/lorikeet hybrids.
A red hybrid lory with bluish-black wing markings, black flight feathers, and faintly blue ears. These hybrids have been bred a few times, likely due to the rarity of blue-streaked lories in captivity.
A somewhat rare hybrid with a black cap, red head and front, green wings, and brownish tail tip. They were first recorded in 1966, with one individual being born at a Tampa zoo.
