The next General Meeting will be held on March 25th instead of April 1st to
avoid conflict with the Easter Camp. The speaker will be Dean Portelli on 'The Australo-Papuan Babblers
with an emphasis on Halls Babblers'.
Margaret Cameron will add to the evening on Babblers by presenting details of the surveys and status of Grey-crowned Babblers
in South East Queensland.
