Around 4 - 6 superbs feasting on a rounded meal of lerps and flower buds (it seemed to me). I am unsure as to whether there were females, or juvenile males only, among the birds I sighted. This seems to be an area favoured by superbs - I don't go there that often, but when I do, I can pretty much guarantee I will see or hear one or more of these beautiful parrots.
