Escapee Cockatiel

["Rod's Gardening" <>]

I'm located in Holder and this morning we had mother and daughter from an 
adjacent street (50 away metres as the crow[or Cockatiel} flies) looking for 
their escaped pet cockatiel.  They had found the escapee in a black sallee 
on our nature strip.  Despite all enticements the bird had not come down 
from the tree as we departed for a paddle on the Lake.  I heard it calling 
at approx 5pm this evening, presumably still on the loose.
The lake paddle produced the usual array of Cormorants and Darters, but also 
a pair of White-winged Trillers on one of the rocky islets near the 
Carillon, also a pair of Black-faced Cuckoo-shrikes.
Cheers
