bird photographers

["michael hunter" <>]

      Hi All,
      No doubt that the NPWS needs more money, but it would be interesting
to know how much they make out of licencing photographers (not including TV
and films), and how much it costs to collect the money and monitor
compliance. Bureaucracy is expensive; are the licencing fees just employing
clerks or actually contributing to NP upkeep?
      Can anyone who knows tell how much  a single good bird photo would
bring if published in a magazine like Australian Geographic, and what kind
of demand actually exists for Australian bird photographs?
                                                       Cheers
                                                             Michael
