Not quite what this thread is about, but anyone up Queensland way, wishing to feed Rainbow Lorikeets in an entirely honourable manner, just plant a Wheel-of-fire Tree, (Stenocarpus sinuatus.) It apparently produces copious nectar and they love it. (Natural range of the tree is from the Bellinger River in northern NSW to Atherton, N.Q.) I have one (plus a couple of other native trees) in my tiny 16 perch allotment here in Hawthorne (Brisbane) ... and plenty of Rainbow Lorikeets in the (summer) Wheel-of-fire flowering season.
