 Introduction
I have been working for some time on what I hope will be the most comprehensive database about the birds of the world, both extant, and extinct since 1600.

THIS IS A WORK IN PROGRESS AND FULL INFORMATION IS NOT YET AVAILABLE FOR ALL SPECIES!

The extent of work completed (to the extent that anything in such an ongoing project can be called completed!) is indicated in the Peters Family List.

I will be updating the information in this database monthly. I welcome any comments and particularly corrections or more precise information. Please email me at jpenhall@bigpond.net.au
