| Sat 8 | | Swift Parrot
Wanniassa Hills Primary School |
| Early morning (7am). single bird sitting quietly in top of dead tree. Poor light, and I initially thought Musk Lorikeet. But flew off with series of high pitched clear notes and photo (eBird list) shows the red bordered with yellow in Swift Parrot facial pattern, red under tail, bluish tinge to green behind eye. Flew off and could not relocate. Area has numerous flowering ironbarks and lots of Rainbow Lorikeets much of the day. eBird checklist |
