The Eclectus parrot was once thought to be two separate species because the genders look so different from one another. The female is red with a black beak but the male, like Ricky here, is green with an orange beak. Once ornithologists finally recognized the true nature of this species, they named it Eclectus to reflect its eclectic appearance.

Eclectic (ec·lec'·tic) is defined as selecting from or being made from a variety of sources and styles.

Those who enjoy different kinds of music have eclectic tastes in music. A person who combines furnishings of various periods is an eclectic decorator. Skilled designers can eclectically combine elements from multiple styles and produce a well-composed work..

No matter what the field, philosophy or style, eclectics is about choosing to use its best or most appropriate components rather than embracing the whole of it.

My own interests are eclectic. When a subject grabs my attention, I am driven by the urge to learn about it. Sometimes a brief overview is sufficient to satisfy me and other times I might spend years studying it in-depth. Because of this attribute, I have acquired a diverse mixture of education and skills, which influences my design work and writings.
