I can't comment on the sivit but we have a tree in the neighbourhood that's been reffered to as 'The Drunken Parrot' tree. I thought that name came from a wive's tale because living in the area for a few years I've never seen any physical proof that parrots got drunk in this tree.

Then the season before last it happened... swarms of parrots decended on this tree and were getting stuck into the flowers... they were noisy and honestly 'falling' out of this tree, having brawls with each other, just like they were drunk. The whole episode lasted about a week... it was amazing. They did not return this season when the tree flowered. Extreme hangovers freash in their minds? Maybe they didn't make it? It's brought many questions about nature to my mind anyway.
