- Tuesday 6 June Club Meeting: “The Painted Snipe project” Speaker: Matt Herring.
The Australian Painted-snipe is Australia’s rarest breeding waterbird, with very few individuals remaining and little known about their habits. Listed as nationally and globally endangered, this strikingly beautiful species is continuously relegated to the too hard basket for in-depth research.With over 20 years of experience as a wildlife ecologist, Dr Matt Herring and a team of colleagues are leading a project to track the Australian Painted-Snipe within the Murray Darling Basin to get a better insight into this elusive species.Matt has previously been a guest speaker at Club meetings with presentations on the Bitterns in Rice project.
