Colorful parrot bird is a eainbow lorikeet if anyone is curious.
A long time ago one of these guys found their way into my house. I’m not a bird person so I had no idea what this was either. I thought it was some sort of parakeet, it loved fruits and climbing on people but it had no interest in seeds or biscuits, which I found strange.
I brought it to the nearest pet shop on my shoulder to get it ID’ed and it stayed on my shoulder the whole time till we got back home. I adopted it and we had many good years. I still miss the colorful parrot bird sometimes.

Lories are wonderful and playful birds. Sounds like the little lost guy found a great home with you. 😊

They are certainly very affectionate birds and great fun to have around.
My only word of warning to a potential first time owner is that they are messy eaters and even messier shitters. They are also noisy AF. I loved their tunes but I’m pretty sure I pissed off the neighbor with their screeching.
