Sorry Cliff but that is a somewhat silly question. I, for one, can honestly say I have never collected bird's eggs in England in the 60s! I never collected bird's eggs anywhere. More to the point, I can honestly say that I have never done anything in England. I have never been out of Australia. So what? Nothing. Mainly in my school age days in the 1970s, I did collect feathers and various other things and have a permit for it and never harmed a bird in doing so. I do recall seeing egg collections in the 1970s but I was never interested in doing that. Even then the habit was frowned upon. I suspect that the issue is now a minor one in the majority of cases. I have removed the "?" in the subject, because I can't understand how "Egg Collectors" is a question. Philip |
