There are no reported recent incidences of Regents in vineyards.  I have,
however, seen large numbers of friarbirds eating grapes.

There are few records of Regents eating fruit although they will do so.  I
have seen them eating the "fruit" (actually the fleshy petioles) of the root
parasite Exocarpus stricta on one occasion. 

Cheers
