I bet the modern photographic evidence is
taking a lot of the fun out of being on the rarities panel - but shouldn’t
the bird be sitting on a copy of the day’s Canberra Times to provide incontrovertible
evidence for the date data at least? Or perhaps this could be arranged
through post-processing? Probable including a GPS shot with lat/longs and
date/time would wrap it up.

Young Geoffrey seems to be a bit reluctant to re-enter the Gardens, so
I have had to pick up the slack. Possibly it wasn't enough of a challenge
for him, with a bird posing about 2m from the observers.
The bird was in pretty much the spot reported by others (the Banksia
ericifolia just past the CSIRO gate is rather hard to miss) and seem today by
myself and Maurits Zwankhuisen between about 1:30 and 2:00 pm.
