G'day All,
 
   This morning I counted 77 YTBC along the Molongolo R to North of RSPCA. Could have been more as they were spread out in pairs to small groups of about 5-6. Much more playful in flight today compared to last flock on Monday when I saw about 60 near a Little Eagle.
 
    Like the first large flock I saw the birds today were all heading West. Is this a normal movement this year or are they circling around and i just happen by the same flock twice? Interested in any other observations of large flocks and where they seem to be heading,
