Martin,
I'd be interested to know what the altitude is at Hoskinstown.
Forshaw's Parrots of the World mentions they are found below 650
metres, which also makes Canberra on the edge.
Cheers

I have just been told of three recent observations of Superb Parrots
on private property in the Hoskinstown area.
On a couple of occasions it was a pair of birds (my informant wasn't
sure if the non-adult-male bird was an immature or a female, so I am
being a bit sloppy in my use of the p-word). There are some old E.
mannifera in the area so they may be exploring real estate. I will
update details as they become available: I hope to go and check the
site tomorrow evening.
