Dear all,

Just a quick note to pass on a reference of interest that I found
while trawling through the stacks in the University of Arkansas
library while I was there for the Society of Ethnobiology meeting in
April...

At pp. 670 to 675 of the Acta XI Congressus Internationalis
Ornithologici (11th IOC) held at Basel, Switzerland in 1954 there is a
well-referenced discussion of the particular suitability of Ireland
for the study of local bird-lore.

If you are interested in a copy of this paper send me a note - I'll
ask for a stamped, self-addressed envelope to send it to you...or your
local library may have copies...or, if I can arrange it I'll make a
PDF copy and post it on the ERSG site FYI...

Cheers and I would be interested to hear of any more recent work done
in this area.
