It equates to changing  Stone Curlews to Thicknees.   Couldn't they put
climate change in there too?

At the AGM of BOCA (Bird Observers Club of Australia) in May the
membership
voted to change the name of the organisation to Bird Observation &
Conservation Australia and the necessary formalities have now been
completed
to enable this change.

The new name of course retains our familiar acronym of BOCA and was
put in
place to better reflect BOCA's dual purposes – that of a member based
organisation encouraging and facilitating bird watching and that of an
active environmental organisation with special interest in birds and
their
habitat.

BOCA will continue to run extensive activities for its members, but we
will
be using the new name to change the way we present ourselves to the wider
community and to seek their support for our conservation and education
work.
