Russell mentioned the terrible fires.
I had a ring from my Canberra daughter today. She tells me at least 2 COG
birdo's have lost homes in the fires and that all that is left of
Tidbinbilla Nature reserve is the interpretative centre. If that is so it is
a great loss to nature. Particularly the Regent Honeyeater captive breeding
program.
The thoughts of all bird watchers would go out to these unfortunate people.
Phillip Veerman of this list lives in Kambah. I trust he and others are OK.
