Would you honestly drive to Newcastle rather than Sydney without
checking first???
I think you are taking this a bit far Nikolas.
If you are really busy and only interested in certain things then
surely something like Enoggera Dam wouldn't be interesting to you
anyway?
Generally i go by the rule that if I don't know immediately where
somewhere is then I won't be in a position to rush off and see
something anyway. Enoggera Dam is somewhere i have never heard of so
assumed it was somewhere too far away to worry about.
I certainly enjoyed reading about it and the excitement it generated
though, so thanks again to the original poster.
Cheers
Dave
PS - Is Birding-Aus supposed to be professional?

A quick Google search still means that you need to open the mail,
which costs a lot of time if you get dozens of mails through a list
serv and you are only interested in certain things. That's why
'professional' list servs have the rule to give the 'important
information' in the subject line: what? where? e.g. "NSW, Katoomba,
Three Sisters, 2 California Condors" That can't be too difficult!
And another one: Try 'Fern Bay' for example will you end up in
Sydney or Newcastle? Tough luck if you missed your most wanted bird
because you drove to Newcastle instead of North Sydney!

Methinks that people protesteth too much if someone leaves some of
the
location details out of reported sightings. Often it is new
members or an
inadvertent omission. If we are reading birding-aus, it means we are
relatively computer literate. A quick Google search usually turns
up the
exact location - try a search on 'Enoggera Dam' for example.
Good Birdwatching.
