Answering the musical question;  When does awww so cute become sickening?




When a large flock of corellas moves into your neighbourhood.

It's an invasion.

I like this type of corella

They are a great bird. Full of character. But soooooo noisy...and as you've heard, in large flocks they can be heard for kilometres.

Are they normally in flocks that big?

Bricktop

No. Only during the breeding season. The live in small flocks usually. 20 to 30 birds on average.



But in breeding season they form flocks of many thousands, and can be heard from great distance. Recently we spent a week in a small seaside town called Port Elliot. A corella flock moved in and you could hear them from any part of the town, usually in the morning and late afternoon.

Like a big orgy.

At about the same volume as a Metallica concert.

Is the noise constant?



Do they stop at night to sleep?
