To birdwg01/ebn,

Please note that below Klaus is asking for the corrections to the book to
be sent directly to him by email, so the corrected edition would be out asap.
You have your chance now to correct the mistakes and errors in this book
to make this the gull guide we have all expected!

Regards

==============================

GULLS The publisher, A&C Black has now decided to recall all GULLS OF
EUROPE, ASIA AND NORTH AMERICA, as the number of errors were too large
concerning photo captions (many were indeed switched off) and distrubution
maps (which in many cases were shown with wrong colour a.s.o.).
This now means, that we have an unique chance to update the text as well.
In a previous message, I have asked anyone who are able to submit
corrections and new information to send them to my postal adress.
Argumentably, a complete Northern Hemisphere treatment of gull ID will
take decades to do, being outside the lifespan of every author. Therefore,
I kindly ask anyone who can supply information also to mail them directly
to me, on e-mail adress calidris at worldonline.dk for considering and
possible inclusion in the brand new version. All help will be fully
acknowledged.
The comments will then be incorporated in the text; the space must be
within the layout of the book, meaning that some of the text might be
shortened down or even replaced.

kind regards
Klaus Malling Olsen
