The report was written by staff from the Conservancy in extensive consultation with staff from DEWNR and numerous partners and represents the current opinion of the Conservancy based on information available at the time of writing the report. The Adelaide International Bird Sanctuary (AIBS) is a recognized site of importance for migratory and resident shorebirds, as well as numerous other species of plants and animals and natural habitats. We provide an overview of the shorebird diversity at the site as well as the context of the East Asian- Australasian Flyway (EAAF) of which it is a key component. We also provide examples of similar flyway- based conservation work in other hemispheres to provide more context and areas to look for additional conservation ideas. The first deliverable was to review the science regarding the value of AIBS as a site on the flyway. In this analysis we focused on seven focal migratory shorebird species, while acknowledging the value of AIBS for the at least 45 other shorebird species known to have occurred in the area. Our review suggests that AIBS is well positioned to provide leadership in shorebird conservation regionally, nationally, and across the flyway. We recommend that AIBS and its collaborators build off the existing strengths of the site to promote itself and ongoing best practices. AIBS should engage other sites in the flyway to provide opportunities for shared learning. Ongoing monitoring should be continued and, ideally, be complemented with additional research on the focal species. The second deliverable was to identify sites to potentially establish agreements with DEWNR. In this section, we present a list of important issues for AIBS to consider

  • Nordmann's Greenshank Population Analysis, at Pantai Cemara Jambi
    Final Report Nordmann’s Greenshank Population Analysis, at Pantai Cemara Jambi Cipto Dwi Handono1, Ragil Siti Rihadini1, Iwan Febrianto1 and Ahmad Zulfikar Abdullah1 1Yayasan Ekologi Satwa Alam Liar Indonesia (Yayasan EKSAI/EKSAI Foundation) Surabaya, Indonesia Background Many shorebirds species have declined along East Asian-Australasian Flyway which support the highest diversity of shorebirds in the world, including the globally endangered species, Nordmann’s Greenshank. Nordmann’s Greenshank listed as endangered in the IUCN Red list of Threatened Species because of its small and declining population (BirdLife International, 2016). It’s one of the world’s most threatened shorebirds, is confined to the East Asian–Australasian Flyway (Bamford et al. 2008, BirdLife International 2001, 2012). Its global population is estimated at 500–1,000, with an estimated 100 in Malaysia, 100–200 in Thailand, 100 in Myanmar, plus unknown but low numbers in NE India, Bangladesh and Sumatra (Wetlands International 2006). The population is suspected to be rapidly decreasing due to coastal wetland development throughout Asia for industry, infrastructure and aquaculture, and the degradation of its breeding habitat in Russia by grazing Reindeer Rangifer tarandus (BirdLife International 2012). Mostly Nordmann’s Greenshanks have been recorded in very small numbers throughout Southeast Asia, and there are few places where it has been reported regularly. In Myanmar, for example, it was rediscovered after a gap of almost 129 years. The total count recorded by the Asian Waterbird Census (AWC) in 2006 for Myanmar was 28 birds with 14 being the largest number at a single locality (Naing 2007). In 2011–2012, Nordmann’s Greenshank was found three times in Sumatera Utara province, N Sumatra.

  • 1 Australian Tidal Currents – Assessment of a Barotropic Model
    https://doi.org/10.5194/gmd-2021-51 Preprint. Discussion started: 14 April 2021 c Author(s) 2021. CC BY 4.0 License. Australian tidal currents – assessment of a barotropic model (COMPAS v1.3.0 rev6631) with an unstructured grid. David A. Griffin1, Mike Herzfeld1, Mark Hemer1 and Darren Engwirda2 1Oceans and Atmosphere, CSIRO, Hobart, TAS 7000, Australia 2Center for Climate Systems Research, Columbia University, New York City, NY, USA and NASA Goddard Institute for 5 Space Studies, New York City, NY, USA Correspondence to: David Griffin ([email protected]) Abstract. While the variations of tidal range are large and fairly well known across Australia (less than 1 m near Perth but more than 14 m in King Sound), the properties of the tidal currents are not. We describe a new regional model of Australian 10 tides and assess it against a validation dataset comprising tidal height and velocity constituents at 615 tide gauge sites and 95 current meter sites. The model is a barotropic implementation of COMPAS, an unstructured-grid primitive-equation model that is forced at the open boundaries by TPXO9v1. The Mean Absolute value of the Error (MAE) of the modelled M2 height amplitude is 8.8 cm, or 12 % of the 73 cm mean observed amplitude. The MAE of phase (10°), however, is significant, so the M2 Mean Magnitude of Vector Error (MMVE, 18.2 cm) is significantly greater. The Root Sum Square over the 8 major 15 constituents is 26% of the observed amplitude.. We conclude that while the model has skill at height in all regions, there is definitely room for improvement (especially at some specific locations).

  • CHAPTER 1 General Introduction 1.1 Shorebirds in Australia Shorebirds
    CHAPTER 1 General introduction 1.1 Shorebirds in Australia Shorebirds, sometimes referred to as waders, are birds that rely on coastal beaches, shorelines, estuaries and mudflats, or inland lakes, lagoons and the like for part of, and in some cases all of, their daily and annual requirements, i.e. food and shelter, breeding habitat. They are of the suborder Charadrii and include the curlews, snipe, plovers, sandpipers, stilts, oystercatchers and a number of other species, making up a diverse group of birds. Within Australia, shorebirds account for 10% of all bird species (Lane 1987) and in New South Wales (NSW), this figure increases marginally to 11% (Smith 1991). Of these shorebirds, 45% rely exclusively on coastal habitat (Smith 1991). The majority, however, are either migratory or vagrant species, leaving only five resident species that will permanently inhabit coastal shorelines/beaches within Australia. Australian resident shorebirds include the Beach Stone-curlew (Esacus neglectus), Hooded Plover (Charadrius rubricollis), Red- capped Plover (Charadrius ruficapillus), Australian Pied Oystercatcher (Haematopus longirostris) and Sooty Oystercatcher (Haematopus fuliginosus) (Smith 1991, Priest et al. 2002). These species are generally classified as ‘beach-nesting’, nesting on sandy ocean beaches, sand spits and sand islands within estuaries. However, the Sooty Oystercatcher is an island-nesting species, using rocky shores of near- and offshore islands rather than sandy beaches. The plovers may also nest by inland salt lakes. Shorebirds around the globe have become increasingly threatened with the pressure of predation, competition, human encroachment and disturbance and global warming. Populations of birds breeding in coastal areas which also support a burgeoning human population are under the highest threat.

  • Some Aspects of Feeding Ecology of the Lesser Sand Plover Charadrius Mongolus in Three Different Zones in the Kadalundy Estuary, Kerala, South India
    Feeding ecology of Lesser Sand Plover in Kerala, S India – K.M. Aarif Some Aspects of Feeding Ecology of the Lesser Sand Plover Charadrius mongolus in Three Different Zones in the Kadalundy Estuary, Kerala, South India K.M. AARIF Department of Zoology, Mananthavady Campus, Kannur University, Waynad District, Kerala, South INDIA. Email: [email protected] Received 24 October 2009; accepted 12 December 2009 Abstract: The study on feeding ecology of the Lesser Sand Plover (LSP) at Kadalundy estuary from July 2007 to December 2008, revealed that there were 13 species of crustaceans and 16 species of polychaete worms identified in the study area of which all identified small crab species(4 species) and polychaete worms (4 species) were consumed by LSPs. The highest number of crustacean species was found in mangroves (11 species). In contrast the highest species number of polychaete worms (13 species) was seen in the mudflats while no polychaete worm was identified in the sandy beds. Of the Crustaceans, Sesarma quadrata and Ocypoda sp. occurred in all the habitats. Sampling polychaete worms undertaken once a month showed that the number peaked at 39 in December 2008 in mudflats. Using direct observations once a week, the number of feeding birds was at its highest in December and January. Pearson correlation test showed significant relationship between the number of polychaete worms and feeding LSPs both at mudflats and mangroves ( p<0.05) and the Scheffe univariate test (ANOVA) showed significant differences between the three habitat zones ( p<0.01). The highest number of average total pecks at prey was seen at mudflats (82.1 in the morning and 128.0 in the afternoon).

WALKING WATERBIRDS unmistakable, elegant wader; no similar species in Chile SHOREBIRDS For ID purposes there are 3 basic types of shorebirds: 6 ‘unmistakable’ species (avocet, stilt, oystercatchers, sheathbill; pp. 89–91); 13 plovers (mainly visual feeders with stop- start feeding actions; pp. 92–98); and 22 sandpipers (mainly tactile feeders, probing and pick- ing as they walk along; pp. 99–109). Most favor open habitats, typically near water. Different species readily associate together, which can help with ID—compare size, shape, and behavior of an unfamiliar species with other species you know (see below); voice can also be useful. 2 1 5 3 3 3 4 4 7 6 6 Andean Avocet Recurvirostra andina 45–48cm N Andes.

  • 2020 Dodgy Drongo Twitchathon Report the Drongos Last Won the 30Hr Race Back in 2017 and It Was Great Getting That Team Back Together Again
    2020 Dodgy Drongo Twitchathon Report The Drongos last won the 30hr race back in 2017 and it was great getting that team back together again. Maxie the Co-pilot and Simon ‘The Whisperer’ joined the Capt’n for a week of birding out west before heading to our starting point in the mulga. It is here I should mention that the area is currently seeing an absolute boom period after recent rains and was heaving with birds. So with this in mind and with our proven ‘golden route’ we were quite confident of scoring a reasonably good score. We awoke to rain on tin and it didn’t stop as we drove to the mulga, in fact it got heavier.As we sat in the car with 20min until start time we were contemplating if this would kill our run. But as we walked around in the drizzle we soon realised the birds were still active. Simon found a family of Inland Thornbill (a bird I always like to start with), Max had found a roosting Hobby and I’d found some Bee-eaters and Splendid Fairywrens. As the alarm chimed we quickly ticked up all those species as well as Red-capped Robin, Masked and White-browed Woodswallow, Black Honeyeater, White-winged Triller and Budgerigar. The Little Eagle was still on it’s nest and a pair of Plum-headed Finches shot past. We then changed location within the mulga and soon flushed a Little Buttonquail!! Common Bronewing, Owlet-nightjar and Mulga Parrot soon fell and after 20min we were off.
