I was walking beside Ginninderra Drive when a pair of Corellas (pair A) landed on lamppost 1.

As soon as they settled, pair B came and landed beside them.
Plenty of room, but pair A decamped to lamppost 2.
Pair B promptly joined them.

Pair A then flew to lamppost 3, and pair B followed.
At which stage pair A was cunning and circled back to lamppost 2.

By this time their calls would have done Sulfur-Cresteds proud.

One of pair B then flew back and one of pair A scampered.

Then the remaining two took off.

Didn’t see them any more, but heard them for a bit.

I think they were trading insults.
