Swift Parrots in East Killara, Sydney

["Kurtis Lindsay" <>]

Hi all,

Happy to inform I saw my first Swift Parrots for my area  this afternoon as I 
was walking to my home at Barrie st, East Killara.
The 4 birds alerted me to their presence by that familliar "pitt" and sqeaking 
call as they flew over my street.
There are a number of favourable food sources in flower around (Angophoras, 
Ironbarks, Melaleucas) especially lining the streets of East Killara so I have 
been waiting for a sighting.

Musk Lorikeets have been present in large numbers with small numbers of 
Scaley-breasted and Little Lorikeets around, however this is my first Swift 
Parrot sighting of the year and the first for my local area!!!
I will keep my eyes and ears out for any more Swifites.

Regards,

Kurtis Lindsay
