In my retirement village in Braddon , early this morning , I did see one immature bird feeding on a pistachio chinensis tree . Walking only about 20 metre to return with camera , alas it was gone , and there could have been more .

By reports there seems to a lot around this year and these particular trees also attract sulphur and gang gang cockatoos , as well as rosellas and king parrots leaving a considerable mess on the footpaths, which the residents do not seem to mind.
