Following my Indian Myna Survey in Shepherd St, Pearce on Thursday 16 July I watched a flock of 6 Australian King-Parrots foraging on a suburban lawn. All were in juvenile plumage, 5 males and 1 female. They were extremely tame and I was able to look at them for some minutes from a few metres away. Thankfully, no cats around!
 
On Saturday 18, around noon on Warramanga Oval 60+ Crested Pigeons - one of the largest flocks I've seen in the ACT.
