Many list members will remember that last July I put the hard word on everyone
to help birding-aus sponsor a species in HANZAB 5. Well, the good news is that
about a dozen people came good with their cash, and we have sponsored the last
three species:
Banded Honeyeater
Bush Wren
Rock Wren
Thank you to all the donors, including one generous member who put in quite a
bit extra so that we fully covered the 3 species. Thanks also to Mandy Johnson
of BA who co-ordinated the financial end of things. Now I have to come clean
and admit that because everyone was so generous, my contribution (to make up
the final required amount) was a fat zero!
SO .... when details of HANZAB 6 sponsorships come out, I will ask birding-aus
members once again to support some species (we should be able to get in early
and pick which ones). But this time I'd better be the first one to put in the
cash!!
Thanks everyone - I think the HANZAB entry will simply say "Birding-Aus
Internet Mailing List Members" - so I will acknowledge the generous donors at
the bottom of this message - names only (not amounts, which even I don't know)
in alphabetical order as provided to me by Mandy Johnson.
Thank you
