To Ray & Lorne,
 
A poster & info sheet will be in the mail shortly.
 
Glad to hear that you're pissed off about the declines Lorne (are we allowed to use such terms on this open line?). The policy-makers need to know that people are feeling this way because change is essential.  To quote from the paper of Julian Reid's that Martin mentioned earlier,
"Further broad-acre clearance of native vegetation in the core of the NSW SWB is indefensible and should halt forthwith ........... Without an effective halt to further clearance, the prognosis for Threatened and Declining birds in the SWB, serious already, can only become more acute."
