    A couple of Scythebill problems

When you've, for example, have seen several of the Hartebeeste subspecies, it would be nice to be able to record them. I have had my subspecies in a database so...

    Does anyone know the Dekedekê afrikan bird?

    Hi Christina Maybe the author just referred to birds in general. The Swahili name for bird is Ndege, which when pronounced is very close to Deké and the bantu languages do have words that to some extent are similar. Carsten

    We've decided to go to Xunantunich during the day time one day and doing the night walk from one of the nearby lodges the same day. Hope to see lots of good birds in the San Ignasio area. Regards Carsten

    Birds of Argentina

    To Richard and Swissboy, The Birds of Chile from Helms has 240 pages so it is probably the same book with different covers. Its an OK book but clearly does not cover all the birds of Argentina, but its a good start for me in getting to know the new birds, so I'm quite happy with it. /Carsten
