Forgot about those. A problem is that a huge amount of scanning, cropping and
renaming of files would be involved, to the extent that I think it would be
impractical for one person to do it for themself without being paid - they'd
spend all their time creating it, rather than using it.
But because they'd be using other people's work, it would of course be illegal
to sell it or even pass on to others for free. So it's up to the publishers to
create things like this. I believe such things are available for US birds.
