Birds Queensland member Annette Cooke

Fellow birding-aussers

Some of you will have known Annette Cooke who sadly passed away last Friday after a long battle with a lung condition. Annette was an enthusiastic birder and great organiser, and we shared the organisation of Birds Queensland camps in the late 1990s. In addition, Annette was instrumental in organising some great private camps to Outback Queensland, and I well remember the very first one which took place in the depths of winter. Some thought it was madness to head out there at that time, but we had a ball and it was a great introduction to Outback birding

Annette’s funeral will take place at 1.30pm on Tuesday 1st March at St Paul’s Anglican Church, Shore St, Cleveland, Qld

Condolences to Annette’s family at this sad time
