I am going over my Aus. bird list in preparation for an upcoming trip down
under, and I noticed a curious thing.  I have a "tick" for both Long-billed
and Little Corella that I saw together at Barrenjoey near Palm Beach, Sydney
in 1984.

Was I hallucinating?  The range maps in the two field guides I have say I
was.  There was a large group of them feeding on the ground.  I was with
another birder, albeit another American on our first birding trip to Aus.,
but we were both convinced that's what we saw.  Are there
isolated/introduced/feral populations of these birds on the coast?

Thanks in advance

Chris
