Hi Don, I found Superb Parrots at the Orange Botanic Gardens on Sept. 17., although they may have moved on since then. Cheers Roger. —–Original Message—– From: Donald G.

After a long drive spent all last night and this morning at Nangar National Park. Staked out at a small dam where I filmed them in February of 2009. None anywhere to be seen. Lots of green lush growth and abundant Eastern Rosellas. Am I missing something about Turquoise biology? Maybe they are elsewhere this time of year? One cant be successful every time I reckon. But was disappointed no Turq’s this trip.

    Don if you (or anybody else who’s heading in that direction) are looking for Superb Parrots, they were outside the OBG in abundance (25+) on the afternoon of 26 September. They were feeding on something in recently cut grass on a small bank between the car park and the road. As for Turqs, I saw 3 in the Capertee Valley on 23 Sept – all seen near Crown Station Road (1 about 1/2 way up, 2 at the site with the mail boxes where the road divides). Cheers Tom Wilson
