Lorikeet Interbreeding and Hybridisation

["michael norris" <>]

Yup

Records from the other side of the Bay - at Ricketts Point or nearby inland 
as far as Clonmore St - of obscure MuskX crosses from 1997 to 2002 but none 
more recently.
Most thought here to be crosses with Scaly-breasted (which hybridises here 
with Rainbow but originally in 1970s said to have bred with Little 
Lorikeet!??).  Musk(?X) seen entering Scaly nest holes etc.
Don't worry about their origin - just tease people who think all the birds 
are in the books.
