Hi Dave
Thanks for the reply. Lived here for most part of my life with my family
and have no personal conflict with the Hunter.
No problem with the Hunter's bird list, Dave, merely querying some aspects
of it, the boundaries of the region, and offering a different
perspective/comparison
with another region. Also wondered why there is such a discrepency between
HBOC data and Atlas data.
Regards
Peter

are found elsewhere such as wide-ranging land birds! I?m sure not many of
the birds at all are directly associated with the ?coal-fired industrial
heartland? as Newcastle isn?t the definition of the Hunter Valley.
