I don’t really enjoy becoming upset over things like this but the 24th Oct 
report of a Glossy Ibis at Murrumba Downs on the Central & Southern Queensland 
page claims that “Murrumba Downs is a suburb of Brisbane”. 

Murrumba Downs is not a suburb of Brisbane!

It is a suburb of what used to be Pine Rivers but is now the Moreton Bay 
Region. It has never, during the current and previous centuries, at least, been 
a suburb of Brisbane.
I will concede that, depending on where in Brisbane you like to start from and 
which route you take, Murrumba Downs is probably 25 km north from Brisbane.

Please, people, can we be a little more thoughtful when we are pin-pointing a 
location for a sighting?
