    I live in inner suburban melbourne and have a tree at the end of my street that hundreds of them roost in. I love the chatter they make as they get ready for bed lol. I recently rescued one while I was walking my dog that was getting attacked by a crow and as I carried it home the whole flock followed me to my front gate and squawked loudly at the door! The next day I took it to a wildlife rescue Center and a couple of weeks later they let it go back where I found it 👍

    Had one of these lorikeets in the past, unfortunately passed last year and ever since I've been wanting to see the bunches of them in Australia. Most talkative and playful bird I've ever had

    I live in Toronto, Canada and I have a beautiful green-naped lory I named Nikki. She is very tame and a joy to own! They are georgeous birds!

    Rainbow Lorikeets are SO loud when they get together in trees in Australia! But they are beautiful birds.

      Around my area, driving by some of the decorative trees on the sides of the roads around dusk can be rather noisy as the lorikeets will be in the trees, but still loud and chattery.

      I used to work an evening shift at one of the supermarkets a few years ago. It meant a lot of the time I was going over right at dusk, so the lorikeets were in all the trees at the time.

    Wow! So much Rainbow Lorikeets! I find that when you're kind to these precious Lorikeets like giving them good food as well as talking to them, that they actually become not so wild but they understand your kindness to them. The more I talk to our backyard Lorikeets and feeding apple, watermelon, slivered vegetables like bok choy, plus the bird seeds and fresh water too, the birds get to know you and they call more birds with them and everyone of them is really happy too! Thank you for sharing your wonderful video Series with us. God bless you all too and your family! 😊💕💕

    @polytelismedia I wish I could but Australia is 10,000 miles from Toronto. What an amazing country with fabulous birds and wildlife! Nikki was bred here in Toronto. I am so happy I bought her. I am almost 60 yrs. old now and a birder all of my life practically! Your video is beautiful and so is your country!

I have been a bird lover all of my life(almost 60 yrs. old now) I am so glad I have a computer so I can look at them even if it is from afar! Australia is a birders' heaven for sure!

    I am so glad you enjoyed the footage on the Rainbows! It's one of my favorite sections in the entire DVD series.
    I had to chuckle as I read how your Lory started talking to the Lorikeets in the video clip. Great stuff! Thanks for your comment! - Don

    @mumandtwins 13 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @polytelismedia I guess it is the social nature of the bird, since I have only got one of the loris inside, him hearing the other birds even if it is via youtube keep him happy as he interacts with us and our cockatiel

    Tragically, these birds are sold, to be kept as pets,. without the social, free, enriched lives they need. I wish people couldn't buy birds. The life of a pet bird is so sad. There is no way to compensate them for the existence for which they have evolved.

    this video cannot begin to convey just how loud and annoying a large flock of these birds can be.. particularly in the tree outside my window at 7 in the morning.
