Having seen two Superb parrots flying over the
N edge of Mt Rogers on 21st November (7:40) there was a pair feeding
amongst Eucalypt blossom this morning at 6:45. A little later they flew
round to a partially decrepit Acacia baileyana (Cootamundra Wattle).
They were feeding on green seed-pods. They, as 'early arrivals', have this
choice of pods. Normally the SCCockatoos have picked those trees
clean by about this time. Note: Acacia baileyana are
a constant target of the 'fire-hazard-removal-crews because they "look
untidy" & are often dying by the age of 15 years!
A or The Koel was calling for at least 3/4 hour as
heard from my Flynn place from 06:00 Tuesday. My feeling is that it moved
between Latham, Charnwood, Flynn & possibly Fraser in that time.
