I think this is the first time I have encountered any mention of Superb Parrots associating with A. King Parrots. I have never seen them together. It may just be coincidence in this case. I asked about this several years ago and am curious as that it appears not to occur. Can you add value to the story by telling us where is your garden (suburb) and what nature reserve you are close to.

I saw three Superb Parrots in our garden today!!  (two males, one femaie) They were eating privets' berries with A. King Parrots.  I swear that we did not plant privets.  After a long absence from home we found three fairly large privet trees in our garden, planted by birds I think.  My garden suvey area is quite close to nature reserve.  Probably this is another reason they honoured our garden with visit?
