Can anyone please provide some specific directions where the
Blue-winged Parrots are at the moment in the Otway ranges in Victoria?
Just about anywhere Edwin! Well nearly ...
On the weekend of the Twitchathon (25-26/10), we found them on roadside
grassy verges and peoples' front yards in Anglesea and Airey's Inlet -
dozens -
very easy to approach by car up to 1-2m. They are also at Ironbark
Basin (Point Addis near Anglesea). If you go into the Otway Ranges
forests proper, you'll probably find a few on unsealed roads anywhere
along the main ridge. Listen for the tinkling call, or watch the
roadsides closely.
