The Rarities Panel records show only two claims of a Brown Honeyeater in our
area - one in the ANBG in 1987 and one in Charnwood in 1998. Neither was able
to be endorsed and in fact the latter turned out to be a Fuscous HE. b

Subject: A Brown Honeyeater in COG's AoI
On the Australian Bird Identification Group's Facebook page on Wednesday
was a series of photographs taken by a lady in Yass. One of the photos
is clearly a Brown Honeyeater. I have been in touch with her and the
bird was photographed in the town itself. To the best of my knowledge
this is the first genuine record of this species in COG's Area of
Interest. I do believe there was a record from the Tidbinbilla Nature
Reserve that was rejected by the rarities panel several years ago. If I
can find the record on my phone I will show the photo to two members of
the rarities panel next week. I am certainly happy to accept this record.
Mark
