Peach-faced Lovebird
Cliffside Court, Alice Springs
3 birds calling and flying about for 20 minutes this morning. I also saw 2 birds last week near the Telegraph Station. They've obviously escaped and with the country as it is at the moment we could soon have another breeding feral population.

Tawny Grassbird
Ilparpa Swamp
A population of Tawny Grassbirds has established itself at Ilparpa Swamp, immediately south of the sewerage ponds. I spotted at least 8 individuals and managed a few photos. No atlas record of these birds within 1000 km of Alice Springs.
