I'm new to all this stuff. Can you explain why these things need to actually
be published in a magazine? Lots of observations, although obviously not as
well researched as you indicate yours were, and rarely referenced at all, get
"published" just by being mentioned in places like birding-aus. I can see that
they might not be regarded as being as trustworthy and quotable as an article
in a magazine, but at least they're out there to be read.
And won't Wingspan and TBO accept them?
