It's obvious that I will be fast asleep when lists and answers are finally posted (... I think. Anyway, it's almost 11 pm here and I'm going to bed.)

So I've posted my guess list on my webpage (press WWW below and click the link on the 'Free' menu entitled, appropriately, 'Photos 2 Quiz Answers').

G'night, lads...

(response to PM) You're right, Steve, I didn't specify which Ground Hornbill-- I meant Southern, from S. Africa, but I don't know what the Northern, Eastern or Western ones look like. ... What was the other one?-- I lost the PM...

I was lucky this time-- I've actually seen 18 of these, and as well I've been studying the South African species for an upcoming trip there! Yes, please give us a bit of a break before the next one, Steve-- I'm exhausted..


1. Brown-hooded Kingfisher
2. Black Stork
3. White-necked Raven
4. Ground Hornbill
5. Southern White-crowned Shrike

6. Wild Turkey
7. Crested (Audubon's) Caracara
8. Red-faced Warbler
9. Gray-crowned Rosy Finch
10. Arizona (Strickland's) Woodpecker

11. Varied Tit
12. Japanese Wagtail
13. Dusky Thrush
14. Grey Starling
15. Brown-eared Bulbul

16. Long-toed Lapwing

20. Emerald-spotted Wood Dove

21. Black Woodpecker

26. Black-necked Stork
27. Eastern Yellow Robin
28. Black Currowong
29. Purple-crowned Fairy Wren
30. Australian Brush-turkey

PS: I deleted the homepage posting.

PPS: There appears to be a good potential for confusion here, with my addressing both SteveNova and Cuckooroller as Steve, in addition to Steve the Owner hanging around and god knows how many other Steves among our teeming 6000s. Many of us assume a stage name and then revert to our True Names mid-membership: is there a protocol for addressing each other?

Respectfully submitted,
C. Harper (aka Mister Micawber)

Thanks to everyone who tried these quizes. I hope you all enjoyed them as much as I did compiling them (hardly a chore looking through various websites).

I have mentioned above that part 3 is green for go but I shall leave it for roughly a week to give you all a break (so I suppose that means amber for now?) so look out for it towards the end of next week!

Cheers!
