The blue-eared lory is a small bright parrot about 20 centimeters long. It lives in the tropical forests of the Indonesian islands and feeds on flower nectar.
The blue-eared lory differs from related species with its bright blue cheeks and red crown. It is important for the forest because it transfers plant pollen and helps them reproduce.
Collects nectar and pollen with a brush at the end of the tongue.
