Who knits their jumpers?


The rainbow lorikeets are getting tamer. And more demanding.

They sit in the birches tapping their feet impatiently in the mornings.

But they certainly add some colour to the garden, mid-winter.

  1. The Mammy lorikeets, of course.

    Or, maybe, the Aunties.

  3. They are gorgeous. Their only fault is, they get raucous & very demanding.
    Much like children really.

  6. They are such fun-loving birds...they have a ball, particularly when they get drunk on the nectar! Cheeky as hell and so beautiful.

  7. I like their little "house!"
    We feed them by hand at Joondalup lakes, their claws are very sharp!

  9. Oh yes, we have winters! No snow, though. Temp at the moment (11:30am) is 12deg C (abt 54F). Definitely at the temperate end of the country.
