Brilliant, thanks Steve. I had a vague
recollection of something like that. I remember about five or six years ago
banding some White-cheeked Honeyeaters at Barren Grounds, one of few records for
the reserve and the first banding record in the 15 years of banding there. I
guess the species is slowly making its way south and establishing itself in a
few spots.
Cheers
Anthony

The latest (2004 - Vol. 19) Nature in Eurobodalla that I
have lists WCHE status as 'now resident in small localised colonies'. It
includes records for 2004 from about half a dozen locations including one
from Bengello (also called South Broulee Beach), probably the same as the
population Dave is referring to, and a breeding record. Evidently they have
become established since the mid-late 1990s. I don't have all volumes of Nature
in Eurobodalla, but Volume 7 (1992) for example notes 'accidental - no
records'.
