Bird Surveys
Up one levelSince 2002 the Perth Biodiversity Project and Birds Australia WA have been conducting bird surveys in Local Government Reserves. The purpose of the bird surveys is to undertake an inventory of bird species on the Reserves and, where possible, to link bird survey information with management and conservation strategies. The project also aims to raise awareness of biodiversity assets in Metropolitan Reserves amongst participating Local Governments and the community. To-date, three rounds of surveys have been completed and reported on, the most recent in May 2006. The surveys are conducted by a loyal band of Birds Australia WA volunteers.
