The SASOL Bird e-Guide - Acknowledgements
This online field-guide would not have been possible without the generous support
of SASOL. In particular
we would like to thank Richard Hughes and Jan Fourie at SASOL.
Struik
Publishers should be thanked for allowing this concept to go on line, and particularly
Pippa Parker, who backed the project from the outset, and gave us permission
to use the images and maps from the Sasol Birds of Southern Africa
(3rd Edition).
We are also thankful to Norman Arlott, for
allowing us to use his illustrations for this online version project. To visit Norman's web page, please go here
Peter Ginn gratefully gave us permission to use drawings from his classic little
book: Birds Afield
Geoff Lockwood checked all the texts, and made a number of useful suggestions
both regarding the texts and the Identification Wizard.
As regarding the choice of the 200 species to use in this version of the on-line
field guide, we had substantial and very useful comments from a number of local
birders in different parts of the country. The following people assisted in
this regard: Dave O'Hearns, Jenny Norman, Bo Bonnievale, Shaun Peard, Gertie
Griffith, Kirsten Louw, Pat Hulley, Andre Pienaar, Roy Sarkin, Steve Davis,
Sally Harris, Sally Adam, John McAllister, Paul Martin and David Winter.
