So excited! Saw them today where the main flock seems to be. Then, this evening, could not believe that here were another small group - and then watched them being chased by superbs!

There have been a large number of recent reports in Canberra with at least 45 counted at Callum Brae, 10+ in Richardson and a few other reports from other suburbs, definitely the largest influx in a long time, if ever, to Canberra. Very good to see this endangered species doing well.
