How to spot
Look for fast-flying, bright green birds in flowering trees. Their sharp, chattering calls are a good indicator of their presence.

Year-round, active throughout the day, often in noisy flocks.
This lorikeet's specialized brush-tipped tongue allows it to efficiently extract nectar and pollen from a wide range of flowers, making it a key pollinator.
