More Superb Parots in Holt

[John Brannan <>]

Not sure if this is the same group, but I counted 11 Superbs in the treetops on the western shore of Lake Ginninderra a few days ago. Possibly the eastern end of their current range? I've heard them flying over in Florey a few times in the last few weeks, but I've never been able to get outside quickly enough to spot them.

This afternoon a group of about 8 headed from Florey to Hawker flying over my place in Scullin.  A little latler another group of 7 headed in the same direction.  A little later, two were seen coming back the other way, and finally 2 were spotted in the loquat tree across the road from 25 Pickles Street.
