User's notes
an adult and two immature birds. With all the corellas overhead no one was in a hurry to fly off, but the adult seemed ok with me getting up close and personal. the young birds were bobbing their heads and making odd calls. every now and then the adult bird stepped in. Great to see them so up close. rare for me.
