Thanks Lisa am very interested to know whether Superb parrots over winter in the Hughes Golf Course area so any sightings from now on would be very much appreciated

Sure, I'll keep a look out. I saw a flock of 3 fly over after the 7 I saw in the tree.

Thanks Much appreciated - one sighting every fortnight would be good if the birds remain around

Thank you for an idea of frequency that would be helpful. Mind you, hadn't seen any for months, then two sightings in a week . . .
