Best Answer

Yes.

Rainbow lorikeets are native to northern and eastern regions (including the southeast) of Australia. There is a small population around Perth which has only come about due to pet birds being released from aviaries. Being adaptable, they have thrived quite well.

They live in rainforests and bushland, and are also common in suburbia, feeding on the native plants in people's backyards.
