G'day everyone,
I've just got back from up north and checked the sightings e-mails, so have
seen the photo Frank mentions - though fairly distant I think the ID is beyond
doubt. I'll try to get permission to post a copy of the photo (at least to the
BirdsWA list). Aside from that there's nothing to add to Frank's posting in
terms of info
Cheers,
John
