One thing I'd like to...Thanks for posting this. One thing I'd like to point out is that BUBO Listing is not intended to do quite the same thing as <a href="http://www.worldbirds.org/v3/srilanka.php" rel="nofollow">Sri Lanka Birds</a>, but is intended to be complementary to the various <a href="http://www.worldbirds.org/" rel="nofollow">Worldbirds</a> systems. The key differences are that BUBO Listing only requires lists, not all your individual sightings (and so is quick and easy to use) and also uses the most appropriate local taxonomy for wherever you are in the World. Hence the <a href="http://www.bubo.org/Checklists/field-ornithology-group-of-sri-lanka-fogsl.html" rel="nofollow">FOGSL list</a> for Sri Lanka, but the entire <a href="http://www.bubo.org/Checklists/oriental-bird-club-obc.html" rel="nofollow">OBC list</a> for the Oriental region as a whole. It's also intended more to be a bit of fun then have serious conservation value like Sri Lanka birds does!Mike Princehttp://www.bubo.orgnoreply@blogger.com
