They may also be a problem within their natural range as people continue tofeed them, despite all the problems, and their numbers appear to beexcessive. It has been suggested that they are out-competing the smallerScaly-breasted Lorikeet on the New South Wales North Coast. They are anaggressive species and will even stand up to birds larger than themselves.

I am not totally convinced that they are pushing the Scalies out but it ispossible.
