G’day Robin et al

It is possible.  As an early teenager, I used to see them come onto the Swan 
River near Perth for a few months then head off again, all very close together 
so probably as one or two flocks.  I think they would only move 1 or 2 hundred 
kilometres.  

In PNG they would move from the coastal lakes at and around Pacific Adventist 
University, up to the little ponds in Varirata N.P.   These were just a few 
birds, not the large flocks we used to see in Western Australia.

Cheers

Mike
