Further to this is when an 'official' name change occurs, or is about to
occur, there are many early adopters posting names that make little or no
sense to the majority of birders.
And while we are on it, very few bird books show 'Campbell's Albatross' for example, yet it is a widely used term. And don't if I understand correctly ( I may well be wrong) a search through C+B might not help. Common names will always cause problems, should we start using species binomials?
