Scaly-breasted Lorikeet at Beaumaris, Vic

[S Cooney <>]

Hi Michael and Birding Ausers,

Enjoyed lunch at Ricketts Point today with the intention of looking for
the White-fronted Terns reported there over the last couple of
weeks.  I didn't see them, but did see five Scaly-breasted Lorikeets
in Banksia trees on the foreshore.  I knew that there were feral
populations on the Peninsula, but I thought that they were further down,
in Mt Eliza, and was surprised to see them here.

Is this usual?

Regards,

Stuart
