Hello all, Given the Australian experience of bird and egg smuggling, perhaps we might be a bit circumspect about providing information as to the specific whereabouts of those rare and/or endangered birds which are particularly attractive to the aviculturists of the world This applies especially to the members of the Cacatuidae and Psittacidae families which seem to hold a strong attraction far those collectors of captive birds, to the extent that they are prepared to pay large sums of money to possess a rarity. For those folk interested only in seeing these birds in their free state, there is surely plenty of readily available information in specialty publications and field guides without the need of detailed information from specialised sources as to their whereabouts.
