During March 2012 I had a party of about 10 fairy wrens in and around my yard in Warrimoo (Blue Mountains, NSW). They were very noisy with perhaps 3 or 4 juveniles begging and insistently following the adults. In the group were a fully plumaged male Superb Fairy-wren and a fully plumaged male Variegated Fairy-wren, both of which were feeding the juveniles. They hung around for about 3 weeks, always with the 2 males in the group. Richard.
