Hi Greg,As there are millions of Rainbow Lorikeets gathering at night time roosts in tree foliage in various parts of eastern Australia at present I would suggest that your bird may have been nesting. HANZAB states " Breeding pairs do not return to communal roosts while breeding, instead roosting in their nest hollows." Breeding for NSW is given as June-Jan, young in May. Greg Clancy |
