Where it wasn't reliable was mostly in that changes had occurred after the book went to print, and we could usually work around these; can't blame the book for that!One oddity was that some captions on a few maps or in a few site accounts appeared to have been written and applied by someone who was left/right east/west challenged: eg the instructions indicated a left turn, when it was a right turn; some captions on an opaque background were positioned across vital details on the maps. However, this problem was confined to only two of the maps we used.It was a very useful book, and best when used in conjunction with Oz members of Bird Forum, who were terrific during our stay.MJB</blockquote>
