    Corella, 2004, 28(3): 79-81 DIET OF THE EASTERN BRISTLEBIRD Dasyornis brachypterus IN NEW SOUTH WALES LINDA GIBSON1 and JACK BAKER2 'Australian Museum, 6 College Street, Sydney, New South Wales 2010 'Institute of Conservation Biology. Department of Biological Sciences, University of Wollongong, New South Wales 2522 Received: I October 2003 7 The diet of the Eastern Bristlebird Oasyomis brachypterus in New South Wales was determined from observations and an analysis of faeces, stomach and gut contents of 18 birds caught in or obtained from Booderee National Park, Jervis Bay and Barren Grounds Nature Reserve, New South Wales. The study showed these birds largely take mobile terrestrial invertebrate species, the majority of which are ants and beetles. There is some indication that plant material, especially seeds, are also part of the diet. Observations suggest that the diet is opportunistic and based on foraging behaviour of 'peck it and see'. INTRODUCTION STUDY AREA AND METHODS Dasyornis brachypterus The specimens used in this study were obtained from two sites. The rare Eastern Bristlebird ° ° (Passeriformes: Pardalotidae), is a small, semi-flightless, Booderee National Park, (35 08'S, l 50 45'E) a Commonwealth of Australia owned area that occupies most of the Bherwerre brownish bird inhabiting low, dense vegetation in coastal Peninsula, on the southern side of Jervis Bay, on the south coast and near coastal south-eastern Australia. It once occurred of New South Wales and Barren Grounds Nature Reserve (34°40'S, in an almost continuous distribution from southern l 50 °42'E) on the lllawarra plateau, west of Kiama, New South Queensland to western Victoria (Baker 1997).

To inform the design of interactive interfaces for the sights and sounds of nature. reviewing audio recordings, we explored how people interact with aural and visual media about birds. We observed how twelve participants with different levels of interest in birds engaged with vocalization recordings, visualizations of bird calls, photographs, and range maps of three species. By conducting thematic analysis, we identified a variety of Challenges of Exploration and Benefits of a Media Assortment. We contribute lessons for designing to Bridge Knowledge & Context and to Facilitate Long-term Engagement with audio in ways that are fun, accessible, and informative. We provide explicit guidance for designers to diversify how citizen scientists interact with nature through audio as they move from engagement to conservation action.

    l\ecords of the Western Australian Afuseum 24: 1 (2007). What was the Jarnadup Bristlebird? AlIan H. Burbidge Department of Environment and Conservation, PO Box 51, Wanneroo, \Vestern Australia 6946, Australia Abstract A 1919 collection of eggs from jarnadup, near Manjimup, south­ western Australia, was claimed at the time to be from the Western Bristlebird, Oasyornis longirostris. This was subsequently disputed by the expert ornithologists H. Whittell and C. Smith. This paper clarifies the discrepancy by comparing dimensions of the eggs for all populations in the genus. Measurements of the eggs, as well as a consideration of the description of the nest, indicate that the clutch is likelv to be from the f\ufous Bristlebird Oasyornis broadbenti. This leads to 'two possible conclusions. The c1utcl~ might be the only known collection of eggs of the now extinct western subspecies of the Rufous Bristlebird, O. broadbenti fitoralis, and therefore represent a significant extension of the known range of this taxon. The alternative, and favoured, explanation is that there is an error in the location data, and the eggs are from a Victorian collection of 0. b. can/Ochrous. INTRODUCTION Jarnadup (now known as Jardee) was a railway Historical records of species occurrence are an siding serving a timber mill about five km SSW c;f important source of background information for Manjimup (Figure 1). As this is well within the threatened species management (e.g. Garnett and south-west forest block, it is an unusual location for Crowley, 2000). They can help to clarify changes in a Western Bristlebird. the known range of individual species and provide There has been, however, some doubt concerning information relevant to an understanding of an the identification.

    Endemic Families of Australasia New Caledonia, Australia & New Zealand 20th November to 9th December 2021 (20 days) Australia – South West Extension 9th December to 14th December 2021 (6 days) Kagu by Rich Lindie RBL Endemic Families of Australasia Itinerary 2 In another first of its kind, Rockjumper offers a tour like no other – an opportunity to see a representative of every family to be found in Australasia! Over the course of nearly three weeks, we will visit New Caledonia, Australia and New Zealand on our quest to find a representative of each family to be found over this diverse region. We begin our tour with a pre-tour extension to New Caledonia, a rather large and ancient chip off the once enormous Gondwanaland block. Host to the highly sought after, and only surviving member of its family – the Kagu. In addition to Kagu, we will also seek out specialities such as Goliath Imperial Pigeon (the world’s largest arboreal pigeon), the lovely Cloven-feathered Dove, the rare Horned Parakeet and New Caledonian Cuckooshrike amongst many others. We next head to the vast continent of Australia, which harbours 6 endemic families, as well as numerous endemic and bizarre wildlife found nowhere else on our planet. Traversing the eastern part of the country, we will cover an incredible variety of habitats ranging from lush expanses of dense tropical rainforest to the dry endless stretches of the desolate outback. Major targets we hope to find include Plains-wanderer, Southern Cassowary, Albert’s Lyrebird, Regent Bowerbird, Striated Pardalote,
