Re: what bird is that? (SEQ)

Hi Judith

It's so good when a threatened bird returns to an area.  But unfortunately 
there can be problems about too many birdos trampling around trying to find 
it - and there are still villains who collect eggs or birds, sometimes for 
sale overseas.
It's a bit of a balancing act between sharing our enjoyment and protecting 
the birds.
So please check with Birds Australia or BOCA, perhaps through their local 
branches, before letting ANYONE know about rare birds, particularly if they 
seem likely to be breeding.
