    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
