acknowledgment

As an amateur birder I often draw on The Slater Field Guide to Australian Birds 2nd ed., by Peter, Pat and Raoul Slater for identification and information. It is an excellent, well illustrated guide and a credit to the many people who assisted in its production and to whom I remain most grateful.

the backstory

margosnotebook

margosnotebook

margosnotebook began as a bird log, a way to organise a growing number of photos. Sometimes I comment about everyday life or places I visit, or veer into philosophical ramblings, but birds remain a constant theme. I love Nature, the Arts, travel and quantum physics. I enjoy many activities but my greatest love is to wander into the quiet hum of the Australian bush, happy to be surrounded by trees, birdsong and scuttling skinks. For 6 years I filed my posts in a hierarchy under 12 major categories. This was particularly useful in collating my birding data. Unfortunately, while trying out new themes in May 2017 this option disappeared, instead of a drop down list under 12 major categories, each category now displays individually. I hope one day I will stumble across another Wordpress theme that reinstates my preferred log. If you know of one please let me know. Free is best!
