Corellas

[Martin Butterfield via Canberrabirds <>]

That matches what we saw when last in Canberra, although I didn't think the flock got quite that big.  There have been large numbers of Galahs (2-300 at least) of Galahs roosting in the trees in Bunda and Akuna Streets and City Walk.

Yesterday I was at Glebe Park at about 4.30 checking out possible choughs which have not been around Campbell for quite some time.  There were 3 groups of them around or in Glebe Park  -  2 of 5 birds and a pair.

  However the excitement was that many small flocks of corellas were flying  in to a large tree.  A passerby told me that that happened most days.  At about 5pm the whole flock (by then numbering 70+  birds) flew off noisily in a south-westerly direction.
