Nicole and I spotted the two Swifties this morning. We initially
spotted them flying into the gums opposite the 6th Green, but they
seemed be feeding in a flowering gum between the 5th and 6th
fairways. Also saw the group Eastern Rosellas accompanied by an
immature Crimson Rosella and a Scaley-breasted lorikeet in the same
area but dipped on the Pale-head Rosella.

he had spotted the Paleheaded Rosella. Anyway I went walking
through the fairways and found the group of Easterns and low and
behold I also found the paleheaded again in a dense Bush right on
the Train Line just past the train platform on the edge of whatever
fairway that is that borders the train station/platform. (thats
Royal Park Train station). Unfortunately It was getting dark and im
not very familiar with my new wizz bang camera so when I went to
take a shot it wouldnt "snap" goddamit!! but I got the below shot
off which you can make it out but its very @#.
To confirm something else though, this palehead is definately
hanging out with the eastern population. In the bush I found it in,
there was also 8 or more easterns roosting.
