Normally I agree too! In this case I didn't look Enoggera up when it was first
posted - perhaps I had Enoggera confused with Ettamogerah or some other place a
long way away from me that I had no chance of getting near. But here I sit in
Brisbane airport. about to board my plane home (after having spent a long
weekend here for a wedding and managing to get two mornings of birdwatching
in), feeling a little shattered to learn where Enoggera actually is!
No criticism John, I completely understand your excitement and probably would
have posted in the same way myself, it's a terrific find, congratulations!

I agree John ! This happens to me on a weekly (sometimes daily basis). i.e.=
