Hi Nikolas,
There's currently wild
Peach-faced Lovebirds in Clare, SA that don't qualify, but if they went
unreported they could become a feral population and displace Purple-crowned
and Little Lorikeets in nesting hollows.
I often go birding in the Clare area - my daughter is a high school
teacher there (and we lived there for 2 years in the 1980s)
Where have the Peach-faced Lovebirds been seen? I'd be interested in
seeing them and trying for some photos.
I'm also interested in your comments re Little and Purple-crowned
Lorikeets in the Clare region. In my experience neither is all that
common there, whereas the Musk and to a lesser degree the Rainbow
Lorikeets are far more common.
Perhaps I've been looking in the wrong places!
I'd be interested in your response.
