Hi
I've used Birdinfo for many years now. It's an Australian product,
written by Simon Bennett.
It has a world list of birds, but you can also select an Australian
Master List and lists for various other countries and regions. It also
has lists of Aus mammals, reptiles, amphibians, fresh-water fish and
butterflies. I find this useful as I record all these beasties in the
bush.
I hope that Simon might include dragonflies in the next edition??
Cheers
Peter

Subject: World Bird Database?
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?
