So this beauty came to us this afternoon, but we think it flew away from home.
We would like to know the species so that we can feed it properly.

Thank you Francis and MrsPbio! We couldn't find its owner, so we kept it. He is very playful and a talker!

Rainbow Lorikeets are mostly fruit-and-nectar eaters. https://www.unusualpetvets.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2018/05/Lorikeet-Care-Sheet.pdf

I hope you can take care of it well or find its owner.
