Saw good numbers of Flock Bronzewing from about 72km south to 15km north of 
Winton on Landsborough Hwy today 2/4 (0900 to 1000).  Have only seen one in all 
my time in the Alice (26 years) so good to see them breeding up in response to 
the good conditions and spreading out from their usual area around Boulia.  No 
doubt about ID, one flew across road 10 metres in front of my vehicle, others 
flew parallel to the road 20-30 metres away showing facial features well and I 
saw others in small flocks of 4 or 5, to 100 metres off both sides of the road. 
 Hopefully Night Parrots are breeding up too!
