Good afternoon,
Thank you for your email and the information provided.
A couple of further questions arise that you may be able to answer quite quickly:
- Can you direct me to the appropriate CSIRO Officer and in what location?
- Was this collection a QVMAG collection or a personal collection held by Dr Green?
- If it was in the QVMAG collection when did the donation take place and under what circumstances?
- Can you direct me to an active 'field naturalist' working in Tasmania and investigating the region's ornithology?
Thank you again for the information provided it is much appreciated.
Regards, Ray

Mr Norman,
Regarding your enquiry about RH Green's egg collection, I can tell you that it was donated to the National Wildlife Collection, CSIRO. I recommend that you contact that agency for more information.
Our library lists the following bird-related publications by RH Green (see below). These may be of assistance to you.
I hope this helps you with your research.

Subject: Bird Nesting Sequence For Ponrabbel Habitat ( Tamar/Esk Confluence)
Good afternoon,
I've been advised that most likely Dr Bob Green most likely would have collected eggs for all the bird species that inhabited and/or visited what I'm now calling 'The ponrabbel Habitat'. Is there such a record and if so does it document:
- A comprehensive list of birds that inhabit/ed the area and/or likely to have pre-settlement?
- The likely abundance of the various species?
- The nesting times for the birds and the likely number of times per season they would have nested?
- The colour, size and numbers of eggs per clutch?
If such information exists and is available I would appreciate some indication of what does and/or who else might have it.
