As one of the lucky few to have seen Coxen's Fig-Parrot (at the
Cambridge Plateau site), I can heartily endorse this project. Anyone
who goes along will see some fantastic birds, mammals, reptiles &
amphibians in those Border Ranges forests, and who knows, you might be
lucky enough to see that rare little bird!
