G'day birding Ausers

As promised (in April I think) I have at last gotten time to update all the lists on my homepage for birds on melanesian islands. I visited 40 small new islands in the Solomons during December. These are now on the list and some of the major melanesian islands have had additional records included.

I must give thanks to those who have provided their personal observations for inclusion.

Highlights were a nightjar on a small island near Haycock Isl, and the first Fork-tailed Swift sighting for the Solomons, which I saw for two days on Choiseul.

I hope you will find these lists useful and I still welcome any additions or corrections you may have.

the page is at WWW.birdsofmelanesia.net

Cheers

Mike
