I think we should check Walter Boles' (Curator of birds at the Australian
Museum)  list to see if he ticked the Night Parrot he found on the road in
south western Queensland a few years ago.  He held it up one night at the
NSWFOC meeting but I didn't tick it!

How many others at that meeting might have ticked it ?  Where is the end to
ticking?

What about sightings of birds on tele?

But surely with all those sophisticated programmes people now have, one can
itemise one's sightings between living, heard living, dead - whether
drowned/squashed/half eaten/shot or whatever, shown by the expert, and all
those other definitions of a "sighting". Endless variation for people with
nothing better to do than manipulate their lists!

Joking of course.......
