Hang on a moment Anne and Tony - all those in the eastern states will think
we South Aussies are a soft breed!!!
C'mon - we've just had some absolutely superb birding weather over the last
month or so. Where's your sense of dedication to the cause???
I don't mind hot weather birding - provided it doesn't clash with the
cricket on TV!
Happy summer/hot weather birding to you all,
Trevor Hampel
