For anyone that is interested in lories and lorikeets or would just like to learn more about them, the American Lory Society is promoting another 1 day symposium to be held later this year. The past symposiums have been well received, enjoyable and a great way to learn more while talking with some of the top lory keepers and breeders. More details will follow, but mark your calendars now!
