10th March 2026: I am currently changing the order of my website to follow the Clements and eBird taxonomy. This is now completed for South American Birds and I will do the same for the other groups shortly. At the same time I am revising many of my older pages. Since starting this website in 2000 technology has advanced so much that there is now little restriction on space and download times so I am increasing the size of some of the older photos, including distribution maps and recordings and deleting redundant links. I have started with South American tanagers and some species have new photos. So far these are Wedge-tailed Grass-finch, Pale-throated Pampa-finch, Blue-black Grassquit, Coal-crested Finch and Bananquit and with the split of Copper Seedeater I have gained an armchair species - the Pearly-bellied Seedeater.
I will be adding to it for the foreseeable future so please revisit at
regular intervals. I would also be very interested in comments about the birds, the photos
and the web site. Please e-mail me at arthurgrossethome(at)gmail.com Last updated on 24th August 2025.
After the trauma of moving house and settling into our new home I am now back to working on my website.
I hope that you will enjoy this site.
