Hi all,
I haven't been getting much birding in this year, but I have some scattered additions to the list for Autumn Beyond. It's been a good month for me, with South Island Pied Oystercatcher and White-fronted Honeyeater (neither of which were found by me, but I did manage to see both!), and then crippling views of a Spotless Crake at Sherwood Arboretum. Sherwood is looking good for rails and crakes again after a long period of inactivity, because post-flood there are now muddy edges visible again! So bring on the Bush Hen and Spotless Crake sightings.
Regards,
Chris

Some more additions for Autumn 2011
Following on from Chris' post, I too managed to get two ticks in a week with the Brisbane vagrants recently. I certainly didn't expect to be seeing White-fronted Honeyeater in SEQ with the way things are out west at the moment......
