Thanks to those who responded both on and off list. I got my first one at
Wollongong Harbour after a pelagic quite a few years ago.
I guess with aviary birds one never knows - certainly I would not count the
Major Mitchell's and Cockatiel that I have seen here near Werribee, but
bulbul I guess is likely to be a question mark for sometime to come.
However - I will be passing close to Bundoora on Thu so still worth a look!
