Hi all,
I’ve replied to Keith Brandwood directly re: the dates for our surveys next year, but thought I would take the opportunity to announce them on Birding-Aus too. Firstly, apologies again for not replying to Keith sooner following his initial email on Tuesday but I’ve been in the Capertee Valley for the last week with Chris Tzaros doing fieldwork. As most would know mobile phone and email coverage is virtually non-existent there so we’re only just back in touch with the world again today.
To the dates – as has been the tradition for a number of years the surveys will be conducted on the third weekend in May and first weekend in August. So for 2012 the survey weekends are May 19-20 and August 4-5.
For further information on the Woodland Birds for Biodiversity project, under which the Regent Honeyeater and Swift Parrot recovery programs are coordinated, please visit http://www.birdsaustralia.com.au/our-projects/woodland-birds-for-biodiversity.html.
And if anyone finds a Regent Honeyeater, the long-running freecall sighting line is still open – 1800 621 056.
Thanks to all who continue to support the recovery of these two fantastic species.
Regards,
Dean
