I know some of the Ironbark street trees near the new apartments on the corner of College Street and Eastern Valley Way were cut down but I'm pretty sure the trees around the carpark behind the Labor club are still there.

In addition to Ironbarks, I've seen some Banksia in flower in Cook and at least 6 Rainbow Lorikeets flying around … wonder how effective they are at getting the nectar?

In my blogpost yesterday I included a photo of a flowering ironbark at Pine Island and commented how this was not far from where a regent Honeyeater was seen in a similar tree last year.  This leads me to think of the trees at the rear of the Labour Club in Belconnen, which when flowering attract a very good crop of large honeyeaters.  Do those trees still exist or have they - like most everything in that area - been bulldozed and built over?
