Birds Encyclopedia Help

We're currently putting together more info for the birds encyclopedia, and we could you really do with some help to add a lot more detail to each of the species. If you can spare a few moments, please take a look at:

http://www.wildaboutbritain.co.uk/british_birds/list

and fill in any gaps where you find then (there are quite a few at the moment ). To edit a particular species, simply click on its title to view its full page, then click on the 'edit' tab at the bottom of the screen.



Thanks

Stu

Re: Birds Encyclopedia Help

Stuart I have just added info in the Bird Encyclopedia and when I submitted it I noticed an Error.I filled in the Lifespan peice but when I lokoed at the short descriptions at the top.It shows wingspan twice so my lifespan is showing as another wingspan
Like this
Wingspan:
20-22cm
Wingspan:
Usually live for a few years only but it is said the oldest known bird was 13 years old

Re: Birds Encyclopedia Help

Thanks Cherrybee, it looks like I forgot to rename one of the fields, but it should be sorted now.

Re: Birds Encyclopedia Help

It wasn't working for me either, so I went under the reference category and went the long way to find it. Try this link?
