First of all congratulations to John and his team from afar. Magnificent work and an amazing scientific find! When I was filming parrots in Aus in 2008 and 2009 I naturally didnt even consider the possibility of bumping into a Night Parrot. That being said my travel mate Greg Little and I did a couple of brief looks at a couple of ponds in outback areas just in case something interesting came down to drink when it was dark.
Having come from North America hoping to film Princess Parrots and having done so www.polytelismedia.wordpress.com I was wondering if John has done much work with Princess. Can I assume that he has encountered the species and filmed it or studied it as well? While no where’s near as tremendously difficult as a Night Parrot I was wondering what his experience was with this species.
Many thanks and as always I so appreciate Russell and Birding-Aus as a resource.
