Now Ian is really geographically embarassed!!!.  It was enough to think
that Melbourne was Sth. East of Sydney, but Ian has really botched it
up, or he is not telling us about a vagrant rarity that has come from
Mexico.  So I suggest, forget the Laughing Gull in Victoria, and get
yourself and your bino's up to Townsville in a big hurry before they go
home!!!!!!!
