Observation details
As described in Pizzey and Knight: "On winter/early spring evenings, flocks perform massed, noisy, aerial displays/chases" -but this was at Thredbo (Village) late December. Atleast 350 were in the massed flock flying up and down the valley several times, with atleast another 50 remaining on the roofs of buildings that we were looking down on from our accommodation. Amazing sight. Could be used in a remake of Hitchcocks "The Birds".
