Thank you Outlander! Yes, they are native. They are called Rainbow Lorikeets.

Really nice catch Todd. He is obviously enjoying the seed/berry, with many more to choose from! He also seems to have became aware of your presence?

Thanks for your nice comment K2 to K50! They were paying some attention to me, but are obviously used to people since they hang out in the botanical gardens.
