Hi all.
Confusion is likely to exist with many people as long as "Common Myna"
*sounds*, to Jo Blow, like "common miner". The latter, in this and many
other parts of Australia, equates to the indigenous Noisy Miner which
many bird lovers regard as a pest in itself. I'm afraid there's a real
danger that such people may declare an unofficial "open season" on Noisy
Miners if they think they are a *declared* pest species.
Regards,
Anne
