    While I love our native birds, if these rainbow lorikeets don’t stop waking me up i may just throw gumnuts at them. The noisy critters are feasting on the flowering gum outside my bedroom window and the noise is aaaargh! I’m on leave you fuckers and I’d really like to sleep in just a little bit.

      Similarly I won’t be able to make plum wine/jam this year, but the pissed parrots are entertaining

        I can’t imagine how noisy they would be pissed!

      I feel you, the sound of red wattlebirds still traumatises me after one kept singing its alarm clock song outside my window during the hopeless lockdown days…

        These bastards start at 4.30am. And once you hear them, you can’t turn it off. I have a wattlebird in the back yard, but he is a bit more respectful with time!

            Well you must have done something, because they didn’t arrive until 7am today!
