Dear Peter

I'm very grateful that people in Europe take an interest in
Australian parrots.

But please in each of your postings remind the wretched
Australian population how good Denmark is on so many very
serious environmental issues (including major greenhouse gas
emissions). Almost all your postings read as if they could have
come from parrot-hunters who want to capture life birds or take
eggs. Some Australian people who have met you say that is not
so.

Maybe you should say why you are interested ? And why you are
not working harder on all sorts of endangered European species
?  What are you doing for the European storks, shrikes,
raptors...

And why are you not equally interested in the fantastic range of
Australian endemics ?

Frankly, someone who has a fascination with just one aspect of
our ecosytems and without a single sign of appreciation of
biodiversity has no claims to be granted any access to special
information.
