OK so it has been pointed out that you shouldn't tick the House Crow. So why
not??? The BBRC and BOURC the relevant British bodies now allow ship
assisted birds officially onto the list as long as they were not sustained
by humans during their stay on board. Hence the House Crow can be ticked as
nobody (as yet) can proove that it was kept on board against its will or
kept alive by being fed.
Mind you ticking House Crow is getting a bit desparate. Now that King
Penguin that Rohan mentioned sounds a much nicer bird to go and tick.
Cheers,
Tony.
PS The Sheathbill was kept alive by being fed on board the ship and so will
not be admitted to the British list.
