Re: Bird Categories

We've had a look through Collins and most of the family info ties in with the book - although there's probably still some missing.

The advantage of having a database is that we can more easily break down and cross groups and then combine them again into larger sets, so we can work around the constraints of having to present the info in book format.

Essentially, wherever a bird can be found in a group, we want to include that group name. For example, the Redstart can fit in a group with the Black Redstart, but it can also be in Chats, Thrushes and Passerines
