A flock of 7 Swift Parrots flew past me at about 1400 today in the heart
of Mulligan's Flat, near the dam where the Black Honeyeaters were seen
first. I searched the various flowering eucalypts in the vicinity but
was unable to locate them.
Further east, near to the sanctuary fence, I found several Southern
Whiteface amidst a large mixed species feeding flock.
Significantly, several of the feeding flocks included adult male Golden
Whistlers today. It has been about 10 years since I observed this
last. If it keeps raining, maybe even Eastern Yellow Robins might
reappear at Mulligan's Flat?
