Spotted
The Little Lorikeet is Australia's smallest parrot species, characterized by its bright green plumage and a distinctive red face patch. It is highly nomadic, following the flowering of native trees.
Where to spot
Open woodlands and forests of southeastern Australia, particularly along the coast and ranges.
How to spot
Scan flowering eucalypt and melaleuca trees. Their high-pitched, buzzing flight call is often the first indication of their presence.
When to spot
Year-round, but local presence depends on flowering resources. Most active at dawn and dusk.

Despite its tiny size, the Little Lorikeet is an incredibly agile flyer, capable of rapid and erratic movements through the forest canopy, making it hard to track.
