I believe this is what jurek was referring to in his post. (Another thread on BirdForum)

 

[PieWie]

Some new additions:

Mascarene petrel off Reunion

and also ogea / versicolored monarch (two names for same bird) and royal parrotfinch can be deleted from the list as we saw these last month during the South Pacific Odyssee (including a.o. fiji petrel, vanuau petrel, tonga megapode, vanuata megapode, vanikoro white-eye en V. monarch et cetera)

cheers,

Pierre

PieWie, I have moved the Mascarene Petrel, Ogea Monarch and Royal Parrotfinch to the "Seen" list.

Fiji Petrel is already on the "Seen" list.

Tonga Megapode, Vanikoro White-eye, Vanikoro Monarch and Vanuatu Megapode are not on the "Not seen" nor the "Seen" lists. Are you suggesting that they be put on the "Not Seen" list?

Don't know if this thread is still going but I have seen a few Congo Peacock. Last year I was living in a remote field camp in the DRC and was lucky enough to see a few pairs. You would hear them almost every other day.

Did you manage to get any pictures Stitchy - there aren't any in the Gallery as yet?

Unfortunately not but I am hopefully returning at the end of august for 9 months so will try and snap one then.

 

[Larry Lade]

I will be updating the lists shortly.

I've seen Vanuatu Megapode - it won't be difficult to guess where!

Wow, I would be certainly interested in hearing more about your visit and perhaps other birds and mammals. Possibly in a separate thread, not to make off-topic.

@Larry
I think PieWie meant that Tonga Megapode, Vanikoro White-eye, Vanikoro Monarch and Vanuatu Megapode were supporting very interesting birds which he has Seen.

 

[Larry Lade]

Lists update soon, I hope

I will be updating the lists shortly.

My computer has been "acting up" lately. I will attempt to update the "Seen"/"Not seen" lists whenever my electronic equipment starts co-operating with my efforts. Please be patient.

Lists updated July 23, 2014

Now on the seen list:
Asian Crested Ibis
Congo Peacock
Dja River Warbler

Hi, I won't add much here then and may make a thread at some point. Just quickly I was habituating bonobos so saw them, and a bongo, plenty of monkeys and of course countless birds such as the congo peacock, great blue turaco, green breasted pitta and african grey parrot. My you tube channel has a few short films from then.

I may be going back at the end of August for another 9 months. Any Congo specials still on that list?
