They were too far away to tell the number. It is interesting that in the new suburb of Lawson the old stand of Pinus radiata are being removed. I have never noted Y-t BC’s in these trees before so don’t know if this will have any impact on them. Personally I am glad to see the pines go and can only hope that the Government uses some brains and replaces them with Eucalypts and other native species, but I very much doubt that they will. I sometimes wonder just how much notice they take of their own Threatened Species legislation. Also for those interested there are about 4 copies of Penny Olsen’s book on the Paradise Parrot on sale for $14:95 at the bookstore in Garema Place in the city. I bought a copy on Thursday.

So graceful and stunning. They are my #1 favourite bird!!!!!!!!! Then I saw them again a little later on lapping around the same area... Very happy start to the day!!! 2 gang gangs in the lower part of Mt Majura on Wed morning as well.
