3 years ago I saw quite a lot in this park, I would guess a dozen or more, and they could be seen and heard throughout. Admittedly it was only a one day visit this time but for much of the day and we only saw these just before we left.
There is more information here on their current status: http://www.birdlife.org/datazone/species...
