I don't know of an electronic list but there's a good book which
lists most alternative names of Australian birds:
J.D.Macdonald "The Illustrated Dictionary of Australian Birds by
Common Name" (Reed). My copy is dated 1987 - don't know if there's a
more recent edition.
Lists some pretty obscure names!
Cheers,
Carol

Does anyone have an electronic list of the various common names for each

I was talking to a colleague from Qld about birds yesterday and today, and
it was as though we were speaking different languages when we named birds. I
think he may have been using older names, but he also thnks there are
regional differences.
Any good lists?
Thanks
