Dear Birding-aussers
An overseas birding friend has asked where she might find information about the origins of the common names of Australian birds.  Could anyone advise me what I might tell her, please?  (I seem to recall this issue being addressed on Birding-aus in the past.)
Thanks.
Richard Nowotny
