  • Recommended Band Size List Page 1
    Jun 00 Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme - Recommended Band Size List Page 1 Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme Recommended Band Size List - Birds of Australia and its Territories Number 24 - May 2000 This list contains all extant bird species which have been recorded for Australia and its Territories, including Antarctica, Norfolk Island, Christmas Island and Cocos and Keeling Islands, with their respective RAOU numbers and band sizes as recommended by the Australian Bird and Bat Banding Scheme. The list is in two parts: Part 1 is in taxonomic order, based on information in "The Taxonomy and Species of Birds of Australia and its Territories" (1994) by Leslie Christidis and Walter E. Boles, RAOU Monograph 2, RAOU, Melbourne, for non-passerines; and “The Directory of Australian Birds: Passerines” (1999) by R. Schodde and I.J. Mason, CSIRO Publishing, Collingwood, for passerines. Part 2 is in alphabetic order of common names. The lists include sub-species where these are listed on the Census of Australian Vertebrate Species (CAVS version 8.1, 1994). CHOOSING THE CORRECT BAND Selecting the appropriate band to use combines several factors, including the species to be banded, variability within the species, growth characteristics of the species, and band design. The following list recommends band sizes and metals based on reports from banders, compiled over the life of the ABBBS. For most species, the recommended sizes have been used on substantial numbers of birds. For some species, relatively few individuals have been banded and the size is listed with a question mark. In still other species, too few birds have been banded to justify a size recommendation and none is made.

  • Spur-Winged Lapwing Vanellus Spinosus
    Spur-winged Lapwing Vanellus spinosus Class: Aves Order: Charadriiformes Family: Charadriidae Characteristics: Also known as the spur-winged plover (not to be confused with the recently renamed masked lapwing of Australasia), this lapwing is a wading bird identified by their striking white cheek feathers, black head cap, brown wings against a black body and long black legs. Behavior: In Africa, lapwings don’t travel far outside their home area but merely make short movements to find wetter areas of their habitats. They spend Range & Habitat: their time searching the marshy ground for small invertebrates. Marshes and wetland habitats of central Africa Reproduction: Because of their large range, these birds have variable breeding seasons. Spur-winged lapwings nest in solitary monogamous pairs, often with other mixed species bird nesting colonies. The large nesting groups help protect the birds in the colonies against predation. The lapwing pair will build a nest in a scrape on the ground sometimes lined with vegetation. The female lays 2 eggs that are yellow with brownish black mottling. They hatch after a 28-day incubation period and both sexes help feed the young. If they double-clutch, the male tends the older chicks while the female incubates the second brood (Sacramento Zoo). Lifespan: over 15 years in Diet: captivity, up to 15 years in the Wild: Invertebrates wild. Zoo: softbill, feline diet, capelin, mealworms and insectivore diet Special Adaptations: Spur- Conservation: winged lapwings have a unique Spur-winged lapwings are abundant in their range in Africa and as such call that acts as an alert when are listed as Least Concern by IUCN.

  • Ecology and Conservation of Australia's Shorebirds
    Ecology and Conservation of Australia’s Shorebirds Robert Scott Clemens B.S. Wildlife Biology M.S. Natural Resources A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2016 School of Biological Sciences 1 Abstract Global biodiversity continues to decline rapidly, and addressing this situation requires an understanding of both the problems and the solutions. This understanding is urgently required for animals occupying wetlands, among the most threatened of all habitats globally. In this thesis I focus on the ecology and conservation of shorebirds, a group comprising many threatened and declining species dependent on wetlands throughout much of their annual cycle. I focus on threats operating within Australia, where wetland loss and degradation continues due to human activity. Non-migratory shorebird species that travel widely across Australia’s inland wetlands have been reported as declining in eastern Australia, but a national assessment is lacking. Migratory shorebird species that visit Australia from breeding grounds overseas appear to be declining most due to factors beyond Australia’s borders, but it is not clear if threats located in Australia are exacerbating these declines. I make the most of the rich data available on shorebirds in Australia to address these knowledge gaps, in the hopes of better targeting shorebird conservation actions in Australia. In chapter one I introduce the importance of conserving migratory and highly mobile species. I then review how pulses in resource availability such as those exemplified by Australia’s ephemeral wetlands impact wildlife populations. I also provide an overview of shorebird conservation in Australia. These introductions provide the theoretical underpinning for the work presented later, and highlight the challenges inherent in understanding where and when highly mobile species such as shorebirds have been impacted.

Wetland habitat has declined substantially since European settlement. Although no waterbird species have gone extinct as a result some are now listed as endangered.
