Hi Simon and all

Regarding Chestnut-brested Mannikins at Prospect Reservoir, there number
vary but I would regard them as uncommon as I don't see them here all the
time. I have also seen them at nearby Greystanes. Prospect can at times be
good for finches and I have seen there Red-browed (abundant), Double-barred,
Zebra and Gold Finches as well as Nutmeg Mannikins. Diamond Firetails may
also have occurred there in the past (many years ago I presume).
