The Aus Bird Video website has had a facelift. More than 50 new video clips
(two from Peter Fuller, thanks Peter). Hyperlinks everywhere, bigger
thumbnails, extra pages for viewing problems, how to submit an Aus Bird Video,
unidentifieds etc.
I've scrapped the old taxonomic order and replaced it with alphabetical order
on common name (much easier to use). I've grandiosely renamed the site to
"Australian Bird Video Archive".
Please have a quick look at the archive to see if I've misidentified some
birds. On the old website I'd accidentally labelled the "Black-winged Stilt" as
"Banded Stilt" - shudder. Also please have a quick look at the raptors on the
unidentified birds page, the first should be easy to identify; the "white bird
with two white spots on its black tail" has so far defeated 3 birders, please
have a look.
By the way, the bird at the mouth of the Werribee River doing the "I can't fly"
act wasn't a red-capped plover. It was smaller and coloured more like a stint
or sandpiper. I'll post an image to the "unidentified" web page later.

I haven't been able to find any similar website (bird video website) anywhere
in the world. Do you know of any?
