  1. Two types of Lorikeets at Bullocky Rest (while I was koala spotting).

    Everybody's favourite Pride Parrot - the Rainbow Lorikeet, and the more subdued Scaly Breasted Lorikeets.

  2. It was a glorious day, so naturally I drove 60km to buy a washing machine—the less said about my attempted repair of the old machine the better...

    A visitor to the banksia I planted 40 or so years ago made me happy.

    Banksia Ericifolia Golden Candles, a cultivar of a local banksia that grows really well at my place.

    *the original repair actually went ok, other than taking a day & a half. Something different broke, the innards were well worn, & I spat the dummy

  4. Two rainbow lorikeets share a quiet moment on a bare branch, their brilliant plumage glowing against a soft winter sky. A flash of colour and companionship found in Brimbank Park, Victoria. 🦜

  6. The melaleuca's are flowering at work, and the Rainbow Lorikeets are making full use of that fact.

  7. You wouldn't think a bird this colourful could be so good at not being seen, but they are surprisingly difficult to spot.

  8. A fairly hefty crop of a distant shot of a Rainbow Lorikeet in flight. (aka Pride Chicken, for those that prefer the modern colloquialism).

  14. Good Morning! Lorikeet breakfast... (sound on but low) I don't normally post video and audio, as I'm not a videographer (as will soon become apparent), however I thought this might amuse or appeal. #photography #videography #RainbowLorikeet #feeding #noisy #gift #EastCoastKin

  17. Lots of Rainbow Lorikeets around this morning at home. There are several large trees flowering in the area and each one is laden with noisy Rainbow Lorikeets.

  19. Afternoon bath-time!

    Around 10 lorikeets were queued up for their turn, and 3 were enjoying their bath together - before I got my phone out, of course. 😂

  22. This fine lookin’ fella was in #Burwood #Australia, sitting in a #redfloweringgum.

    He and his cheeky rainbow lorikeet mate were having fun in the branches. His mate is in pic 3.

    They’re gorgeous birds… and smart.

    This one was cheeky; he knew he was being marvelled at and stuck around to be adored and worshipped!

  24. During our recent zoo visit we saw wild (well, um… resident!!) #RainbowLorikeets - aren’t they just gorgeous?

    We were there before opening time as we did a ’glamping’ overnight stay and the zoo keepers feed them first thing in the morning, in their accustomed hang-out place.

    So the timing was perfect for some colourful and playful snaps!

    Hope you enjoy.

  26. A load of #Rainbowlorikeets were feeding at the #Melbournezoo #Parkville #Australia this morning.

    They were at ground level and close to the main path. They had no care in the world apart filling up their bellies and posing for shots!

    There were at least a dozen taking turns at the feeder.

    So colourful and vocal.

    Was magic. 👏👏
