Sorry for this disclaimer about our portals to other sites:
We use a large amount of links to other web sites; they could be broken and we would not know about it..broken links will happen and we will fix them as soon as possible=thanks for your tolerance/understanding
Disclaimer 2: sometimes it's very hard to identify birds; we still have some miss identified birds on site we are correcting​- this also seems to be a continuing need
