Does anyone know any details of the new Pizzey guide?  I believe he has 
been working on it for at least 10 years - hopefully it will follow the 
Christidis and Boles list.  A new artist is also welcome - has anyone 
seen his previous work?

Ken Simpson chatted on 3LO (Melbourne ABC radio) a few days ago, 
describing the new edition.  He emphasised the NEW plates as well as the 
revisions.  He also admitted that his favourite birds are the swifts, so 
it will be interesting to see what his 'verdict' is about our northern 
visitors!

2 new editions - what are the Slaters up to?  Oh dear, I'll need a bigger 
bookcase...
