Superbs

["Paul Mahoney" <>]

When I think how many years after I arrived in Canberra before I got good 
views of Superbs...
After the flock of 10 in Oatley Court on Tuesday morning,...

one (young?) perched in the carpark between DIMIA and MagnetMart in 
Belconnen Town Centre on Wednesday morning and again on Thursday at 
lunchtime.
three flying over the intersection of Coulter Drive and Belconnen Way on 
Thursday evening.
