Too true. I had about 50 corellas out the front this morning. That's like a cockatoo, but without the sulphur crest. Talk about noisy!!

That is so Australian!To have so many lorikeets in your backyard!

Awesome birds, but they do make a racket. I currently have a dozen birds or more outside my kitchen window. They are feeding on the seed pods of a china doll.
