What do rainbow loreckets eat?

Rainbow lorikeets primarily feed on a diet of nectar from flowers, particularly those of eucalyptus, banksia, and bottlebrush plants. They also consume fruits, seeds, and occasionally insects or pollen. Their specialized brush-tipped tongues help them extract nectar from blossoms efficiently. In captivity, they are often provided with a balanced diet that includes specially formulated lorikeet pellets, fruits, and vegetables.
