Hi all,

Just saw (1510hrs) 4x Swift Parrots on the corner of Clift Crescent & Heagney Crescent, Richardson. Flying about the tips of the Snowgums.

Attention drawn to them by their distinct call, looked up & saw the four flying.

Alas only had my phone on me. Managed to get a short video, can’t really see the birds but can definitely hear them as they fly off. 

Watched them resting in the tree tops for 2-3 minutes before they flew off in north-westerly direction. 

I saw a single bird (image obtained) back on 06/09/20 at this same location. 

Cheers,

Adam
