Yesterday I saw 6 Rainbow Lorikeets on the pavement in Darling Point Sydney, feeding on the very fine seeds of the liquid amber trees. It is the first time I have seen them feeding on the ground. How they pick up the seeds which are about the size of finely ground pepper corns is a mystery. unless they use the brush tip of their tongue. Stuart.
