Hi all
Following my short review of Goodfellow's "Birds of Australia's Top 
End" (September Wingspan), I've been asked by a few people, 
perhaps cheekily, why I didn't feature in the book if I know so much 
about birds in the Top End. Simple answer is yes I do, it's just that 
Denise used my personal observations without citing their source 
or acknowledging their use. I'm not sure why she did that - she 
wouldn't say.

Happy birding
Niven
PS A Redshank was reported a couple of days ago in Darwin, first 
rarity for our migratory season. Also a suspect small sandpiper 
around that needs chasing up. That'll give me something to do for 
the next day or so!
