I just learned of this site, too, and checked it out this week. I think it's
the best-constructed bird-related bibliography I've seen on the web. DUCKDATA
and GOOSEREF (?) are also good, but not as sophisticated or clean looking. RIS
searches on Ferruginous Hawk and Hawaiian Hawk (neither io nor 'io worked)
provided an interesting contrast in level of study. Give it a try. Then go find
some of those references on library shelves.
