| Sat 25 | | Phesant Coucal & Superb Parrot
Coonabarabran Township & weir. | | A brown coloured Swamp Pheasant was flushed from the side of the road bewteen the weir and Neilsen Park close to a patch oif Phragmites along the Castlereagh River. The Coucal flew into a Casuarina near the river bank and was clearly seen by Noel and Krystyna Lonergan, who come from the Central Coast and are very familiar witrh Coucals. A adult male Superb Parrot flew over over the town, while Rainbow Lorikeets were abundant, and Blackbirds and Spotted Doves were commonly seen in the town streets. There are no previous records for Coucals in Coonabarabran, but they have been recorded further west in the Macquarie Marshes on a number of occasions. I can see no eBird records for Superb Parrots in the town, but they are autumn/winter visitors to the Coonabarabran District, and I have seen them west, north and east of the town including 36 birds, 8 km east of the town in 25/8/2007. eBird asseses Blackbirds, Rainbow Lorikeets and Spotted Doves as "unusual" but they are commonly seen. When I lived at Coonabarabran 1975-1983, none of those species occurred there then, but by 1985 Blackbirds had moved into town and have been common ever since; the first Spotted Dove on EBird was recorded in Coonabarabran 5/4/2015, and the first Rainbow Lorikeet on 21/4/2016. | | Alan Morris.
