User's notes

I watched these lorikeets for about five minutes or so. It started with two in a hanging branch, then over time others flew in and there was a flurry of activity with the one hanging low on the branch, as the branch swung round in the breeze with much flapping and squawking from the birds. At one stage there were four birds in the melee.
