User's notes

Over a period of about 30 minutes I saw approximately 70 King Parrots, ranging from single birds to groups of 12, pass through this spot along McQuoids Creek heading west towards the Murrumbidgee River/Bullen Range. I have noticed this occurrence a number of other times at this spot over the last month. See also sighting 4388322

Flying to a roosting site?

Will have to wait until the lockdown is finished to go into the Reserve to find out :)
