Well the someone on the Chatline last week saying how few birds they have observed there was me but that was just a comment on how few birds there were noticeable over the couple of hours I was there on the day of the official opening when there were a large number of people around and I did not try especially hard or go actually into any "forest" areas. (I wasn't there for a bird survey.) That was not an attempt to say that there isn't potential for many more. As to there being 60 species there, surely that is not on a day trip. That could maybe reasonably be true over the duration of a year or more when you add in the various uncommon species passing through.
 
Philip.
