Went to North Richmond and saw my first Swift Parrot. Sighted 5 birds.


Went along the Springwood Road past Yarramundi and found 30+ Swift Parrots
about 100 metres south of Shaws Creek. There is also a Bell Miner colony
here. The Swifts were feeding on lerps in, I think, Yellow Bloodwood,
collected some fruit and this is was closet match.

Maybe people should be checking out all the Bell Miner colonys since they do
farm lerps.
