Around 2:15pm today at the conclusion of a rogaining event at Kowen Forest, a massive flock of about 250 Yellow-tailed Black Cockatoos (my count 245, Yumi's count 260, we were viewing from slightly different locations) flew over. 
The biggest previous ACT counts on ebird are 200 from Uriarra Forest pre-fires, with 2 other records of ~180 and my record of 142 from the pines near the zoo last year.
