"Ageing and Sexing Quiz"

from the January 2001 Annual Ringers' Conference at Swanwick

The quiz was compiled by ringer and BTO staff member Graham Austin using photographs and expertise supplied by friends and colleagues. Pictures in the quiz remain the copyright of the individuals credited.

Frequently handled and infrequently handled species are included. Some straightforward, some not so. Hopefully fun, hopefully educational. You are invited to download and view the quiz and use it without alteration.

The quiz is available for download as self-extracting files containing MS PowerPoint 2000 presentations in three parts covering Passerines (4Mb), Waders & Wildfowl (2Mb) and other Non-Passerines (5Mb). (The large file sizes are necessary to show with sufficient clarity the features required for identification.)

To download these files click on the links below. This will download self-extracting files to your hard drive, usually into c:\temp. From Windows Explorer double click on these .exe files to extract the MS PowerPoint presentation to your hard drive.

If you do not have a copy of MS PowerPoint, or have an older version, then the PowerPoint Viewer is available as freeware on many computer magazine cover disks or alternatively available as a free download from Microsoft - go to http://office.microsoft.com/downloads/9798/ppview97.aspx

Graham is on the lookout for new photos for future quizzes. If you have any of a similar quality to those used here, and you would be happy to allow Graham to use them for this purpose, please email him in the first instance graham.austin@bto.org.
