Regular readers of Greg's blog will know he has been doing a tremendous job trying to educate the public about the rare and threatened bird species in the Sunshine Coast area and the need to protect the habitats.

Let's hope Greg's subsequent media article brings about some positive changes:

Keep up the good work, Greg.
