Eleanor, 

I searched in OCLC and didn't find any libraries that owned this work!
Seems like a major omission in U.S. collections.  Here's the bibliographic
information I got from the NHM online catalog:

Brough, T.
Average weights of birds / by T. Brough
Guildford, Surrey : Aviation Bird Unit, Maff, 1983.
[ii], 131 p. ; 30 cm.

Wonder if it is still available for purchase from MAFF (Ministry of
Agriculture, Fisheries, and Food)?
