Dear all,

Following the recent thread of bird migrations, here is another interesting observation. Four of us were doing a Regent Honeyeater search yesterday 17 May. Near Linton Nature Reserve west of Bundarra, we saw wave after wave of groups of Musk Lorikeets flying in a westerly direction. The estimate of numbers was in the hundreds. None of us could recall ever seeing this phenomenon before. (No Regents, by the way, but plenty of bud on the Muggas.)

Regards
Shirley
