The Chattering Lory, Lorius garrulus is a forest-dwelling parrot endemic to North Maluku, Indonesia. It is considered vulnerable, the main threat being from trapping for the cage-bird trade.

There aren’t any pics of them in the wild that I could find but there are a few good shots of them in bird parks.

One of the reasons they are so hard to find is because they inhabit a remote area of Northern Sulawesi near Halmahera.  You can get to South East Asia and get a domestic flight to Halmahera.
