No sir, you cannot send attachments through the b-a network, Russ has a
block on them. There's also a size limit on normal email content but I
forget what it is. No doubt this mail will ferret it out.

Cheers. I've been trying to get something posted. Does Birding-Aus not
like attachments??

Is this unusual?? Thursday 21st July at 'Gooding's Corner' a big
roundabout 
on the intersection of Gooding Drive and Robina Parkway, Carrara, Gold 
Coast, Queensland, I saw at least 50 Magpie Geese (probably many more
than 
50) paddling and splashing in the many pools of water left by the recent

heavy rains in this area. There were also some foraging in the dryish 
looking grass among some cattle. I was so surprised at the sight that we

were past the area before I could do an approximate count and didn't
have 
the time to do a quick turn around to go back. Maybe it's not an unusual

sight; I'm not really familiar with the birds in this region but thought
it 
worth a mention on Birding-Aus.
