A cookie is a very small text file that is placed on your hard drive by the server of a web page you visit. It is an individual label, which identifies you as a visitor - it cannot deliver viruses. Some of our cookies are generated automatically by the software we used to create parts of the site. Others are simply used to save time by automatically filling in any forms that you have already filled in. If you want to change any details you can simply type over any text.

Javascript
This site uses Javascript to control and validate data entry. Please make sure you use a browser that supports Javascript and make sure the feature is turned on. We suggest using Microsft Internet Explorer for you viewing pleasure - really only because that is what we develop on - we develop almost exclusively using Microsoft technologies - bacause life is too short to be experts in all that is wonderful. So, if you are using non-Mirosoft software and your experience isn't as good as ours, let us know about it. You will find a link at the bottom of every page inside your selected domain to 'Make a Comment'.

Web Site Maintenance
Periodically we need to do maintenance on the Websites - for updating and making repairs. Please be patient if you see the "Site is undergoing maintenance" page. We tend to do this at god-awful hours (for us anyway) so you probably won't come across it too often.

Why does this site exist?
For a couple of reasons. Firstly, it is essentially a showcase site to demonstrate our skills. Secondly, one of us (Martyn) is a birder. He has seen many wonderful sites about birds throughout the world but was frustrated by not being able to search for a bird if you know a little about its appearance but do not know what it is. Being database programmers/developers he thought why not build our own. So here it is - warts and all. Please enjoy.
