Hi Kirri,
On 11 August we had them at Pine Creek just down the street from the Police
Station. After passing the Police Station on your left, there is a dirt road
turning off to the left and there were four feeding on the ground in that road
as well as a couple perched in near by trees. This was about 7:00-7:30am. Good
luck!
Cheers,
R. Bruce Richardson
