Published sightings for the week ending 1 Aug 2010.
Wed 28 Jul Princess Parrot Between Yulara and Mt Liebig
Good numbers of Princess Parrots frequenting an area of more than 100
sq. km within the Northern Territory between Yulara and Mt Liebig within
a geographic area that could be described as the eastern Gibson Desert.
The minimum number of birds observed were estimated to be more than 100
but it is probable there were many more in the area. The birds were very
active and had formed numerous flocks of mostly 12 to 20 birds. One
flock comprised more than 60 birds.

Fri 23 Jul Pictorella Mannikin Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve
A pair of birds seen just at dusk just west of the campground. After
referring to Birds Atlas and the distribution maps in the field guides
these birds would seem to be just south of the normal distribution
range.
