CBCs , Koels, etc., on the move.Hi Tony

> From the archive I don't agree that we are getting the same stuff year after 
year nor the notion that we may only be seeing "a bit of seasonal 
variation".  Some of the changes are I believe best explained as effects of 
global warming.
This year there have been reports of Channel-billed Cuckoos near Bairnsdale 
in mid August, and in Brighton, a Melbourne suburb, in late August. (And of 
Grey-headed Flying-foxes in Tasmania!)
But I do agree it would be good for all records to go into the Atlas or at 
least to someone to collate records for particular species.
Mike Tarburton has been doing great work on tracking swifts each year. 
Maybe someone would like to do it for Koels.... or Ross's Gull.
