Re: So....what's next for bird photo games?
How about somehow linking in with some of the other forums? I'm not sure how it would work or even if it could. Maybe along the lines of 'Four of a Kind' but extended to include a bird, a herp, a mammal and an invert. For example the 'Four of a kind' could be photographs of; Golden Oriole - Golden O...

Thanks. The observation was made back in 2008. It took a while to realise the significance of it.Nice work on the V. rudicollis find!
It's a small world.Coincidentally, I'm good friends with the person that took the photographs on the cover and inset.

I am firmly in the Australia camp here. The wildlife, including the herps, is amazing. The countryside is stunning and the people friendly.
