I too am interested to know if there is available a general database for
Australian birds. 

Have just got a rough list of Australian birds on an Excel spread sheet
but would like to know how people organise on the spreadsheet their new
records of dates and location etc for each bird. I envisage something
like each species is put at the top of a set of columns then their new
dates and locations etc is filed in rows below. This would require 800
sets of columns to cover all Australian birds. Is there some other way
or another program better suited for this style of database recording?
Otherwise all the records just stay in note books and are difficult to
access or not kept at all.

Could a good database recorder out there please offer some advice?

Hello,

I wondered if anyone could help with the following queries:

1) I won't be back there until sometime next year, but I wondered in the
meantime if anyone could tell me if there is a bird club/group which
covers the Bribie Island, Qld, area?

2) Is there some form of database package available to purchase covering
Australian birds (for keeping your personal records and lists on)? If
so, where could I get a copy from?

Any advice much appreciated,

Best wishes,

Cheryl (UK)
