Attracting Lorikeets to yard

by Warwick Cumberland
(Australia)

I live in Melbourne Australia and we have lots of wild Lorikeets flying overhead.

My question is , how do I encourage them to my garden, what food would I use as an attractent?

Our rear garden is planted out in native plants with lots of native flowers, but so far has not attracted these little birds.
I have heard that you can attract Lorikeets to feed in your garden, so how do I do that?

Thanking you in anticipation.

Regards,

Warwick.

Hi! I was recently in Australia near Sydney and my hosts had Lories all over--they had a bird feeder and put a variety of seeds and crumbled bread or other treats--they also feed a kookaburra raw hamburger meat and the lories liked that too.

I think if you get a feeder--and maybe a birdbath with water in it--and you keep sprinkle some parrot seed or treats (pet store items) you will attract them and once they know you are a good feeder, they'll hang around. The Lories in Narooma came every afternoon to see what they could get!
