philadelphia, but until such a time as my software updates, I shall continue to know them as Larus (this is a personal obstinacy and does not necessarily reflect the view of The Management ). I hope this defiance of the AOU won’t affect my US visa application. It is unlikely to be an abberation of plumage, unless you know better.

Still, after I used modern software to turn the originally black-and-white photos into colored ones, some of them may still be worth looking at). Like many other species, the Chinese Nuthatch is expected to be affected by climate change. The species is named after Peter Simon Rosefinch – no, that is wrong.

It is rumored that one of the researchers later became a software developer. It seems that at Nanhui, somebody is trying to kill even more than 2 bird(s) (species) with one stone (to be more accurate, not a single stone but a massive amount of concrete).

For many years now, I’ve resisted every form of listing software available, choosing instead to maintain my world and ABA life lists on a simple Excel spreadsheet. Then the fun really started… The eBird interface came back saying that a whopping 251 species needed clarification. I blame Nate Swick.

I’m going to go right to a discussion of the Species Accounts, because I know that’s where you all want to be, with the warblers. I do love the fact that the table of contents lists all three names (all pointing to the same species account). The authors note when a species cannot be sexed or aged with certainty.

A complete guide would have pictures, audio, and video (something like Thayers birding software). No need to page through dozens of plates of similar looking species anymore. I think the digital guides need to improve in user-friendliness. The future definitely will be electronic. I think the future of ID guides is video.
