In the morning, I'm seeing about 6-8 birds in trees near the the corner of
McNicholl and Higgs Streets in Hughes. They have been there for a week or so
but Gang-gangs are frequently seen and heard along the street. May be
roosting in Hughes/Garran Woodland.

Miro van den Berg's survey is on from Friday to Sunday.
Does anyone know where there are Gang-gangs at the moment? We often see them
in Namatjira Drive Chapman, but haven't seen any lately.
