Yes Lorne, I have a copy, my son gave it to me for Christmas this year.
However if you are a regular bird watcher it will not tell you much you
don't already know. The video sequence is mainly for the common birds,
the ones you really want to see some flight views of are the ones for
which that info is not available!! At least that is my experience for a
birdwatcher who has seen 590 species of Australian birds. You are better
off spending the money on petrol and going out birdwatching!
