Neil Rankin passed away last Friday and the funeral service was held yesterday 
Wednesday 17 the Jan 2000. He had been ill for a long period. Neil will be 
known to Sydney birders and he did a lot of his bird work in the Wolli Creek, 
Arncliff areas. He wrote the publication 'The Birds of Wolli Creek". His 
collective knowledge on this area of Sydney will be sadly missed.
