Hi Benj,

They were actually on the upper, less trammeled section of the Lake, north of Ginninderra Drive. Maybe 200 yards north of G Drive in the scrube beside the bike path heading towards Giralang (which is where I was going).

where were they?
They have been on Lake Ginninderra penninsula (ie Diddams Close Park) for at least the last couple of years. From the spot where the cormorants preen (ie SW Diddams park), just up the hill there are a bunch of small shrubs where they often were.
But I only have seen a maximum of 6, so they may have bred.

Saw a small flock of around 10-12 of D-b Finches on Lake Ginninderra yesterday. Not something I normally see around the lake. Maybe they've had a particularly good breeding year?

I just saw a Double-barred Finch at my work near the rear entrance. This is the first finch in the 6 years I have been keeping an eye on the birdlife in Parkes.
The closest suitable habitat would probably be at Stirling Park.

Cheers
Marnix
