Yes Julian – I mentioned one at Forde on 24 August. In the Winter Birds survey there were 4 separate sightings in July including 20 at University of Canberra. I think Chris’s season starts on I September. Perhaps I had the last of the previous season.

Barbara, you win the prize for the first Superb Parrot sighting of the season. Right on time and just what I was expecting given their presence at Cowra. My first Noisy Friarbird of the season this morning at the Pinnacle NR, Hawker. At the rate the wind was carrying it along, it is probably now in Victoria. And two Superb Parrots just flew over my garden in Page. b |
