Royal National Park

["Marc Anderson" <>]

Hi Edwin,

               Steve's Royal NP guide does include some of the vagrants that have turned up in the  park from time to time including Black Honeyeater which was recorded breeding in 1902!! But most of them are birds that are fairly frequent or have been seen in recent years.

Cheers

Marc Anderson
