Hi, first post here so please forgive if it's a bit light on detail.
Tonight, leaving Belconnen mall I saw 4-6 pairs + one Juvenile superb parrot feeding in tree in south-eastern end of upper carpark. 2 pairs took off as I was driving off and flew approximately along the line indicated on the map below (I was able to track them as far as Nettlefold street before I had to stop at a red light.) My estimated flightline seems near to other sightings in Cook, though they might have ended up closer to Bindubi st. 

Google map showing locations & flightline here:
