Folks
I have received a request from a teacher in the USA for information on
Australian birds for her grade 3/4 students. She is also after particular
information on parrots and "the honeyeater".
I have replied to her with several webpages to look at. One thing that
struck me was that very few of the sites I looked at provided photographs
of Australian birds with accompanying information.
The best sites I found (albeit during a very quick search) was the
Australian Bird Study Association kids page http://www.absa.asn.au/ and the
Canberra Ornithologists Group site showing some common Canberra
birds
http://www.canberrabirds.dynamite.com.au/canbirds.htm#common. Trevor Quested's
website http://www.camacdonald.com/birding/quested/ was a bonus with photos of
quite a few birds including a good selection
of honeyeaters with some text.
If anyone has any further suggestions please feel free to reply to me
directly.
Cheers
David Geering
