Regent HE on NSW SW slopes

Those travelling through the Cowra area might be interested in hearing that a Regent Honeyeater was observed by a birdwatcher travelling from Koorawatha to Cowra on 1 August.  Details are very sketchy with no precise location.  The best information I have at the moment is that the bird was seen between Cowra and Koorawatha in the broad band of roadside veg along this section of road.

I'm hoping that someone travelling through the area might be tempted to stop and relocate this, or other, Regents.

Regent Honeyeaters are reported from the south-west slopes periodically (nearby Frogmore seemingly being a "warm-spot").  Documenting these sightings is extremely important.

Happy hunting
