hi All,

just back from visiting hubby's family in Brazil and squeezing in a bit of 
birding here and there too...first time I've been back since getting more 
interested in birds so the life list has exploded.



Apart from hooking up with a few local birders, the website WikiAves:

http://www.wikiaves.com.br made a huge difference for me. It is a joy to 
explore - so many good quality photos, and an amazing accomplishment for a 
country where birding is relatively new. It is so well organised and I like the 
fact that people can send in their photos and recordings and you can create 
birdlists by location. For anyone who is planning a trip to Brazil, this site 
is a must - and it's ranked no. 2 on Fat Birder's Top 1000 (for those who care 
about such things). Only drawback for non-Portuguese speakers is that the 
English version appears to only have English headings but the content is in 
Portuguese, though I'm sure this will change eventually...


I wish there was an equivalent for Australia. What are the best Aussie sites 
for bird photos?



cheers,

Arwen
