Hi all
Between 8.30 and 9.00am 26-12-08 saw up to 14 Superb Parrots feeding on wattle seeds A fimbriata? (have taken a piece to the ANBG for ID) in Wangara St near the park while 1 or more SP chicks were being fed in eucalypts nearby. The numbers fluctuated as they came and went, presumably to feed chicks somewhere else, Wybalena Park?
 
There were 4 there at 12.00noon, none at 5.00pm but 4 flying and perching in trees in the area (not on the wattle) at 6.00pm.
Regards
Peter
