Hello subscribers
An opportunity has arisen to have Donald
Brightsmith, as he will be in town, to give a short talk on "Macaws of the
Peruvian Amazon". COG member Debbie Saunders has recently done
volunteer work for Don's project and highly recommends this
presentation.
As a consequence my Bird of the Month talk will be
restricted to about 5 minutes on the Jacky Winter, outlining the key
identification features only, and leaving the repeat of the red-breasted robins
presentation to those participating in the robin twitchathon on 20 July
(there are still a few seats left on the bus).
The main presentation
will remain by David Geering, the
Regent Honeyeater Recovery Co-ordinator on ?A Bird in the Hand: Returning the Regent
Honeyeater to the Bush?. This
will cover the recent release of captive bred birds and well as update of other
aspects since he last spoke to COG.
So with Wimbledon and the State of Origin over,
there are no reasons not to come - we guarantee that you will be home in time to
see the interesting bit of the Tour de France!
