Halpin" Subject: Australia MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=us-ascii Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit We will be traveling to Australia, New Zeland and Fiji beginning early June. The trip we are on is not a birding tour but I would like to take advantage of these locations since the tour provides lots of free time. Our itinerary takes us to Melbourne, Alice Springs, Ayers Rock, Cairns, Palm Cove and Sydney in Australia, Christchurch, Queenstown and Auckland in New Zealand and Korolevu in Fiji. What I was looking for is a downloadable checklist from the internet (something specific to these areas and with seasonal abundance would be added bonuses), a good reference guidebook(s) and good internet sites to visit which would give me information about the favored birding sites in the locations we will be visiting.
