CENTENNIAL PARKLANDS SURVEY

On Saturday 4^th January 2012, seventeen members met in Centennial Park and had an enjoyable day conducting surveys at various spots in the Park.  The group also enjoyed some casual bird watching. The highlights included several Grey Butcherbirds, a Buff-banded Rail and a Nankeen Night-Heron.

Birding NSW has been conducting surveys of birds within Centennial Park since 2009. Gradually a lot of data is being gathered which will eventually show trends and  assist with the management of the parklands.

If you would like to participate in Club organised surveys or carry out surveys in  your own time with the guidance of the Club’s Activity Officer please write or email us.
