1. We are beyond saddened to only just hear of the passing of Phillip.
   What an honour to have had the privilege of meeting such a kind, gentle, bird loving man.
   His kindness & knowledge when speaking with my daughter (both bird lovers) about birds was admired & appreciated. Our thoughts go out to Shirley & family at such a sad time x

   I'm sure there has been a beer and bet with Bernie already in the big blue sky.
