Hello. Thanks for all the advice! I did finally see and hear 3 Gang-Gangs
around 9 am yesterday in the Botanical Gardens. Then, somewhat ironically,
as I came out of my building at Uni House to go to breakfast, a pair of
Gang-Gangs were feeding on a Plane tree in the enclosed lawn area with the
fish pond just behind the office.
Thanks to all Canberra birders for their help during my brief visit! Today
I'll be driving around the southern part of the ACT before catching an
evening flight to Perth.
Thanks again!
David
