Four more intrepid twitchers leave Brisbane at 4.00 am in the
morning to see it, including me! Please God we are not the first to
dip - what a horrible thought! Will let you know the outcome

Hi All,
Firstly I’m still interested to hear who has been for the Grey-
headed Lapwing.
As of yesterday my running tally was at 182 birders. As far as I
know, nobody has yet dipped on this bird! If this is the case it
would have to be some sort of record.
As previously mentioned on birding-aus I’m interested in
quantifying the economic benefit of the Grey-headed Lapwing twitch
to Burren Junction and other communities. To this end, tonight I
sent a questionnaire to at least one person in each group/car for
whom I had contact details.
I would expect that one of outcomes from this exercise would be an
ability to demonstrate that birders do contribute dollars to local
communities.
I am hoping to get a high response rate so that the results are as
meaningful as possible. If you have been for the bird, haven’t
received a questionnaire and would be prepared to fill one out I’d
be keen to hear from you. Likewise if you aware of people not on
birding-aus that could participate feel free to let them know.
Finally, can anybody help with contact details for the following
people whose names have come up on birding-aus in relation to the
lapwing?
Graham O’Conner, Allan Richards, Chris Sanderson, Myrene Egan,
David Egan, David Redhead, Francis? Redhead, Dick Jenkins, Richard
Jordan, Pierre Charbonneau, Jenny Norton, Tim Kenny (my apologies
for any misspelt names)
