RFI canberra birds and recent wet weather

[martin butterfield <>]

G'day Cheryl  

http://canberrabirds.org.au/Bird%20Routes/Bird_route1b.pdf and  http://canberrabirds.org.au/Bird%20Routes/Bird_route2e.pdf are direct links to COG bird routes, reflecting the wisdom of members of COG over the decades. 

I'd expect that none of these spots will be closed for the long weekend.  However it is possible that the ground will be a tad soggy so have some shoes and socks that can tolerate dampness!
