Yep. Can confirm. We see heaps of them here in Sydney.
They are one of the few birbs that take no shit from sulphur crested cockatoos (whoโs only existence seems to be to cause mayhem, but I still love them).
TIL there are lorikeets in the US. I'm guessing they're escaped pets? One of the nicer Australian animals to have on the loose.
Busch Gardens is an animal theme park owned by Seaworld, I don't think Florida has feral loris yet.
birb.
