On Sunday, we came across this flock of over 40 Major Mitchell's Cockatoo
west of Temora on a road not far off the Burley Griffin Way (only part of
the flock in the photo). To add to this wonderful sight, a tight flock of
over 50 Superb Parrot was feeding in the paddock adjacent to the tree. There
were other small flocks of Superb Parrot flying around in the area as well
which made it hard to estimate the overall number. I could of watched for
hours but unfortunately it was late in the afternoon with the light fading
fast.
