Hi All,
 Yesterday Marie and I took a look at the "Scout Den" near Lake 
Kurwongbah (nr Petrie N of Brisbane) with a couple of friends. For the 
third weekend running we recorded Black-chinned Honeyeaters, and on this 
occasion they appeared to be feeding young. (We saw at least 8 birds 
though there could have been more)
This site is 'rumoured' to be in the path of a new road planned to ease 
traffic-congestion, so we were wondering if anything could be done to  
make the public aware of this rare species (in SE Qld)?  I will contact 
Qld Parks and Wildlife but would welcome anyother suggestions.
Also at a location near Cashmere (just south of Petrie) we recorded 
Yellow-tufted Honeyeaters (again, very rare in the Brisbane area.)
For further details please contact us privately,
Tom
