Thousands of noisy corellas in
search of food are terrorising residents in the northern suburbs of Adelaide,
wreaking havoc to street lights, signs and trees.
The local council has tried using
everything from drones to pyrotechnics to disperse the birds, but now they are
calling on the Environment Department to take charge.
Imagine this noise three times a
day
A flock of corellas captured on a
mobile phone flying over a house at Andrews Farm shows the level of noise the
birds make as they pass over homes.
Sandy Bandtock said that scene
and sound were all too familiar to her in nearby Munno Para West.
"Five past six in the
morning they come past and then they come past in the afternoon and then they
do it again probably at 10 past six that night as well," she said.
"It's probably three times
[a day] they make all this noise, it's quite loud."
Ms Bandtock said the noise could
be "quite frightening, until you know what it is".
