Boobooks – All of them

Hi all,

Mention a tour company and they ask you for favours;-)

Happy to oblige though so…..

Can anyone help James Eaton with his Boobook request below please? C’mon guys, we may get a split or two out of this;-)

Details of where to send recordings are in his note below

Dear Alan,

I am looking into the taxonomy of Southern Boobook, primarily to do with the Indonesian races but I need a good series of Australian recordings to back up my theories, and while at it, I will also look into the taxonomy of the species in Oz, including Tasmania and Queensland birds.

I need to ask the following:

I am currently involved in an on-going project regarding Southern Boobook and require as many sound recordings of the territorial call as possible – if any one is able to provide sound recordings they would be warmly acknowledged in the publication.

Please send any recordings to jamesaeaton@hotmail.com and please provide location details (site and state) and date.

I require recordings from anywhere in Australia (particularly Tasmania and Queensland), New Guinea and New Zealand.

Cheers,
