User's notes
We estimate there were around 10 swift parrots grooming themselves here - and, I assume, feeding, but could not get photos of feeding (very high up, against foggy sky). So excited - and grateful to see. There was a bit of a skirmish with resident eastern rosellas, but eventually all settled. In the fifth photo there are 7 swifts, and this was after around 3 had flown off.
