G'day Sean et al.

Years ago, when the Ducks in Sight video and id test first came out,
several Hamilton Field Nats Club birders did the test and all narrowly
failed.  I was one of them.

I agree it is ludicrous to think that shooters can id Stubble Quail
from other species with any degree of accuracy.

By the way our Hamilton Bustard was seen again on Saturday but not
since.  Maybe the wintery weather on Sunday convinced it to head back
north.

Cheers
Steve
