CONVERSION TO NEW FORMAT
During 2013 I'll be continuing with the change of format of this site. Those groups marked NF have already been converted.
The new format shows just one 600-pixel photo of each species - the best I have so far. A link takes you to see more photos of that bird.
Enlarge by clicking on the photo. Close by clicking on the X in the lower righthand corner.
