There were 11 drinking from puddles on Aspinall St, Watson around dusk yesterday, including noisy, begging young.

Yesterday there were at least 6 in the trees at MacArthur Place in O’Connor, first time I’ve seen them there in the nearly 20 years I’ve been going there. After a few fly overs, last seen at about 9.30 am heading towards Northborne Avenue, perhaps their destination was Corroboree Park?

This morning (at c.10.15 am) there were about 10 Superbs feeding in a Eucalyptus street tree on the corner of Toms Crescent and Corroboree Park (Ainslie).  Included some begging young being fed by adults.

The first time I’ve seen them in this street.

Some were in and out of an E. mannifera across the street on the edge of the Park, but I’m not sure of the species of the E. tree they were feeding in.
