Hi Sue
It is a
Polygonum, probably aviculare from the photos. Wireweed. The parrots, Galahs, cockatoos love it, especially over the cooler months.

Subject: [canberrabirds] weed ID
I wonder if anyone can identify this weed which Superb Parrots were feeding on this morning. The specimem is a bit battered after being in my pocket but is of spreading habit, tiny flowers 2-2.5mm width, leaves
5-8mm long, 3-5mm wide.
