Hi Carl
Unfortunately I don't have spares of the cards you
need but if you don't have any luck with birding-aus
folk let me know and I can make a note next time I am
sending my wantlist to my various card collecting
contacts.
Tuckfields did do an Australiana Animals series of 32
cards.
regards
Cheryl
