Went to the reserve off Rivett St Hacket this morning & saw 5 LL. Had no luck until about 8 when the group flew down from the slopes of Mt Ainslie. After doing a circuit around the reservior they settled in a tree just down from the powerlines...where I  happened to be standing. Two then alighted on bare branches of a nearby dead tree, thereby presenting excellent views. The birds were only vocal when flying. They departed for suburbia & presumably the flowering eucalypts in the area at about 8.40. So I left too!
