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

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