I would like to add my compliments to Keith and Lindsay for their efforts in
maintaining Kingfisher Park over the years, and my congratulations on their
impending retirement. Even way over here in Canada, Kingfisher Park is well
known in birding circles. I am also very pleased to hear that the property is
in good hands! Congratulations to Carol and Andrew. During my several visits to
Australia, I have visited Kingfisher a number of times, and I am thrilled to
know that I will be able to visit again on my next trip!Gary DavidsonNakusp,

Subject: [Birding-Aus] Kingfisher Park Birdwatchers Lodge rumours
Hi Folks,
We know there have been plenty of rumours going round the last month
about Kingfisher Park Birdwatchers Lodge being sold, well it has not
quite happened yet but barring any last minute dramas the settlement
will be on 4^th February. Both the business and the freehold property is
going to transfer into the safe hands of Carol & Andrew Iles, who many
of you will know as our neighbours and local bird guides. We will be
retiring to our house which is only 8 minutes from the Lodge.
So after almost 10 years we are handing over to Carol and Andrew who
first visited the Lodge in 1998 and were the resident bird guides at the
Lodge from 2000 for four years. They have been living next door for four
years and have again become bird guides both for the Lodge and their own
guiding business. Theyplan to do their utmost to maintain and improve
the Lodge and grounds as somewhere for wildlife, especially the birds
and birders, to enjoy for years to come and look forward to welcoming
new guests and the long-time faithful. They will bring a wealth of
knowledge and experience both from our area and from around the world
where they have birded in about 100 countries. As we only owned the
business and leased the property we found it frustrating not to be able
to up-grade the property ourselves, this is something they intend doing.
We wish them the very best in their new life.
Finally we would like to thank all of you who have visited the Lodge
over our time here, it has been most rewarding meeting all the fantastic
birders and wildlife enthusiasts. We have enjoyed sharing a little of
the wildlife in our wonderful part of the world and trust you will
support the new owners.
Cheers.
Lindsay & Keith
