Hi Colin,

You are correct, it is Toonumbar NP.  Not a good idea to put these things up
when tired!

Thanks
Carla

Hello Carla,

I think your best record is the Red-tailed Black-Cockatoo. I  
understand that they are extremely rare in NE NSW, and have been for  
many years.

BTW, is the name of the NP Toonumbar, rather than Toolumbar?

Regards,
Colin Scouler.
