Hi everybody -

I know this is a bit of a hobby-horse with me, but I find the thread on
sightings of birds well out of their natural range very interesting.  I
believe it is important to understand the dynamics of feral populations to
determine whether they pose threats to to bird conservation, and remind you
that all free-flying (or free-walking/swimming - more likely with birds
such as guineafowl, pheasants, muscovy ducks...) birds can be recorded for
the Atlas of Australian Birds database.

Cheers,
Hugo
