Hello everyone,

I was amazed to see a flock of 150+ YTBC pass overhead as I cycled home along 
the Molonglo River this evening at dusk. The main flock was approximately 100 
birds strong and they were followed by stragglers in small groups of 5 to 10 
birds. 

The flock was flying east from the Deeks Forest area towards Yarralumla; I have 
heard YTBC from that direction both mornings and evenings as I bike along the 
path. There seems to be a pine forest in that area - is this where they're 
heading?  Has anyone else spotted them?

Cheers,
Beth
