G'day all,

The 22/08/01 posting from Trevor Hardaker (South Africa) re Albatross Identification prompted me to check out "Zest for Birds" the Web page http://www.zestforbirds.co.za/  from Cape Town, South Africa.

 

The page and the links provided heaps of info...below are a few of the pages that I checked out.

 

Something for everyone ?

 

Regards, Bob Forsyth, Mount Isa, NW Qld.
