A word of warning. Don't let your new Pizzey and Knight get wet! I know of
two copies that have been ruined by getting slightly damp. The pages stick
together as if glued. Has anyone else come across this problem?



.........and a best 8 list seen while walking the dog in the morning

1. Little Kingfisher - a long held fantasy fulfilled last year when one
showed up along the creek at the end of the street
2. Brolgas - dancing on the wetland
3. Red-tailed Black Cockatoos - flapping leisurely overhead calling
raucously
4. Great Bowerbirds - 5 bowers within walking distance of home
5. Red-backed Fairy-wrens - brilliant dots of scarlet perched in the
greenery
6. Royal Spoonbills - with nuptial plumes, feeding in wetland with egrets
and ibis
7. Peaceful Doves - constant calling - the sound of the tropics
8. Striped Honeyeater - most out-of-range bird - only seen once.
