Very nice shot. Is this a fairly common bird?

There's a few down our at the moment. Four around our house (we live on a 70 acre farm) and the pair near my work (surrounded by scrub). I have read that they can appear in flocks of 30 or more when conditions are right. Being the grips of a drought, it may not happen.

Cheers Trace
