Thank you Maryanne. Your message has a pleasing quality, quite out of proportion to its small importance given all the problems out there in the wider world. I am sure all will hope for a happy future for this particular Superb Parrot.

Thank you everyone for your tips. The Superb Parrot was happily released into a flock at Mulligans Flat this morning!

Hi all, 

 

Wildcare has a young Superb Parrot in care that has recovered from its injuries and is ready for release.

 

Can anyone tell me where we might reliably find a flock in the Canberra region to release her into? As she is young and has spent some time in care, it is important she finds a flock quickly.

 

I have checked eBird and Mulligans Flat looks promising, but is there any particular spot where they are regularly seen there (which would be the closest entrance gate)?
