I'd say criteria for non-birders are: big, colorful, unique and easy to spot:
e.g. Emu, Southern Cassowary, megapodes, Little Penguin, possibly albatrosses,
parrots, kingfishers/kookaburras, frogmouths, lyrebirds, bowerbirds,
riflebirds, finches

Subject: My top 10 Birds for tourism
These are not necessarily in order
Black-necked Stork
Comb-crested Jacana
Splendid Fairy-wren
Red-bellied Pitta
Superb Lyrebird
Rainbow Bee-eater
Azure Kingfisher although I guess more tourists would prefer Laughing Kookaburra
Bourke's Parrot
King Parrot
Palm Cockatoo
It's hard to see birds through the eyes of a non birding tourist.
Hope everyone had a peaceful time over Easter.
Fiona
