I spotted three unfamiliar ground feeding parrots. Turquoise Parrots?

Ah, I thought I had successfully put a pin on the map, but obviously not!
I saw them in the Burrinjuck area - south of Bookham alongside the Murrumbidgee River

I am fairly certain I saw one (adult female) in Gundaroo last April but no evidence unfortunately.
