I only got half way to the main gate at Mulligans Flat today and spent the next 2 hours watching a pair of Superb Parrots feeding on lerp in a small eucalypt.  Both let me get very close (to within a couple of metres) so I ended up with nearly an hour of video before my camera battery ran out of power.  Although Noisy Miners were in the area and even landed in the tree the parrots were feeding on, they did not disturb them.
