sparrows

The Pink Cockatoos are often seen feeding in the International Gardens 
between Warrendine and Franklin or Machin Park between Franklin and Gardiner 
and sometimes around Blackmans Swamp near the netball courts. The Striped 
Honeyeater usually nests in the Strawberry Tree in our front yard but I have 
not had any sightings this Spring/Summer. There have been what I think a 
couple of Yellow Finches in the same tree but they don't appear from their 
dense leaves covering or sit still long enough for a proper observation. I 
have tried putting seed down but the starlings get it before they make an 
appearance.
A flock of about 20 Cockatoos just flew over making a great noise. Usually 
hear them before you see them.
