Rainbow lorikeets in North-east NSW and southern QLD are experiencing what is being called Lorikeet Paralysis Syndrome, or LPS. The cause of LPS isn't known, but it's thought to be a toxin from ingesting a fruit or nectar from a flower. LPS is seasonal, with a higher occurrence between December and February. In this first part of our two part discussion on the topic, we catch up with neurobiologiust Lucy Farrow from UNE, to discuss what's happening to these beautiful birds.

With brilliant crimson chests, green backs and blue crests, Rimatara Lorikeets are stunning birds. The last native population of the lorikeets survives on the island of Rimatara, thanks to the foresight of the island's last queen, Temaeva Vahine, who placed a tapu on the birds, denoting them sacred. Rimatara residents, proud of their ‘rainbow' birds, have teamed up with the Polynesian Ornithological Society to ensure the lorikeets are here for generations to come.More info and transcript at BirdNote.org.

Today, we will talk about the Rainbow Lorikeet, a very colorful species of parrot. It is found on the eastern coast of Australia, and lives in rainforests, coastal bush or forest, and woodland areas.The Rainbow Lorikeet is a medium sized bird, with very vivid coloring. The head is a deep blue, and greatly contrasts the yellow green neck. The upper parts of the wings, back, and tail are bright green. The chest is a fiery orange yellow, and the belly is the same deep blue as the head. The thighs and rump are also green. The underside of the wings are red, with a bright yellow wing bar. The beak of the Rainbow Lorikeet is an outstanding orange-red.Rainbow Lorikeets feed mainly on fruit, pollen, and nectar. They have a tongue adapted for their diet. This tongue has a papillate appendage, which is adapted to gathering pollen and nectar from flowers. Rainbow Lorikeets will eat many fruits, such as coconuts, native plants, papaya and mangoes opened by fruit bats. They are frequent visitors at bird feeders.

Miranda Lorikeet sat bored in front of a computer at the age of 22. A receptionist for an insurance company, the role was anything but creative. Enter Microsoft Paint. Like most desktops, Ms Paint was installed. Miranda unleashed her creative urges and began what would soon become an artistic career as one of the very few, and very talented Ms Paint Artists. She creates wanderlust landscapes with little naked women running around, climbing mountains, and swimming in lagoons. And also still life pieces that make the ordinary seem somehow more exciting. Vibrant and playful, Miranda's work captures a mood that you just want more of. You'll see what I mean on her Instagram @mirandalorikeet Miranda joined me from her home in Sydney for this week's Interview With An Artist.
