Neville Caley's book Date: Tuesday, 5 June 2001 7:59 PM
G'day All, Iv'e been away for a few days and
just read Bob Forsyth's bit about What Bird is That...a few years ago I
tried to find a book to give me the meanings of scientific names...and then I
stumbled on Caley's..some are a bit out of date but it certainly is better than
nothing. I did own one but mislaid it over the years although I still have a
soft covered copy, but the old, hard covers are the ones for what we
need...mine cost $20..a friend picked it up in Adelaide for me. I spent Sat.
night at Gluepot Reserve with my recording gear ready and no Masked Owl
called...but...it called for several minutes on Fri and Sun nights...that is the
way things go..aye ? See Ya Doug Holly
