Yesterday I watched a flock of over 50 Corella moving around Gaythorne for over an hour. I could nt tell if they were Long-billed or Little at the distance. The Boondall Wetland checklist says they have Little Corella but doesn’t mention Long-billed. Simpson and Day show a small population of Long-billed near Brisbane, but no population of Little anywhere nearby. What are the odds for seeing a new species for me here in B (they were Corellas)? -TATE Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry ===============================

Little Corellas are the common Corella in Brisbane. Often flocks (the ones I see near Sandgate anyway) may contain a few Long-bills as well. But I have never seen a large flock of Long-bills in Brisbane. Cheers Steve Murray
