I asked a similar question a while ago (see
http://bioacoustics.cse.unsw.edu.au/archives/html/birding-aus/2007-01/ms
g00050.html). I'm using J-Bird, which is free and good, but a little
weird. Getting a Christidis & Boles checklist into it wasn't easy at
all, and I spent a lot of time fiddling around extracting lists from pdf
files and manipulating them in Excel in order to import them into the
program.
It seems like a lot of people use Birdinfo, which isn't free, but is
apparently very good and set up ready to go for Australian birds. I
assume you get a world checklist too, but I've never used it. Can any
users comment on that?
