Mike, also refer to http://www.ccinet.ab.ca/merlin/home.html this site has a
series of db files that has taxonomic lists of birds, mammals, plants (?),
reptiles and butterflies. Although the files were created for the Merlin
bird/animal database which *is* a commercial database, the creator has made
the lists available for free use. They import readily into MSAccess.
There is a separate list for Oz birds.
