Introduction This Species Management Program (SMP) has been developed to facilitate appropriate management of ‘special least concern’ animals and ‘colonial breeders’ protected under the Queensland Nature Conservation Act 1992 (NC Act) during construction and operation of the Carmichael Coal Rail and Offsite Infrastructure Project (the Project). The content and structure of this SMP meets the Queensland Department of Environment and Heritage Protection (DEHP) SMP guidelines. The content of this SMP: x provides species specific information on the species covered by the SMP x identifies potential impacts from the Project on these species x recommends appropriate management measures to help avoid, mitigate and manage potential impacts on special least concern and colonial breeding animals during and after habitat disturbance required for the Project. The structure of this SMP is as follows: x Section 1 – Introduction and scope x Section 2 – Terms of the SMP x Section 3 – Assessment and impacts x Section 4 – Management actions x Section 5 – Monitoring and reporting x Section 6 – Miscellaneous, including contact details x Section 7 - References This SMP covers species defined as special least concern animals under section 34 of the Nature Conservation (Wildlife) Regulation 2006 and colonial breeders. A separate Threatened Species Management Plan covers ‘endangered’, ‘vulnerable’ and ‘near threatened’ (EVNT) species protected under the NC Act and/or the Commonwealth Environment Protection and Biodiversity Conservation 1999 (EPBC Act) Act. Species occurring or likely to occur with the study area for the Project have been identified from ecological assessments undertaken for the Environmental Impact Statement (EIS) (GHD, 2012a; GHD, 2012b; CDM Smith, 2012a; GHD, 2013). Adani Mining Pty Ltd (Adani) proposes to follow the DEHP generic SMP (Appendix A) for tampering with breeding places of ‘least concern’ animals protected under the NC Act, in accordance with section 332 of the Nature Conservation (Wildlife Management) Regulation 2006. Adani will register with DEHP for approval to operate under the generic SMP. Adani accepts the generic SMP in its current form and will abide by its conditions for construction and operation of the Project to mitigate impacts on ‘least concern’ wildlife. The DEHP generic SMP does not apply to the following species: x species defined as ‘near threatened’, ‘vulnerable’, ‘endangered’ or ‘extinct in the wild’ under the NC Act x breeding places located

  • The Migration of Swallows in South Australia. by A
    116 MOl?llA.N-Thc Migrat'ion 'of Swallows in S.A.. The Migration of Swallows in South Australia. By A. ,M. MORGAN, M.B., Ch.B. Four swallows inhabit South Australia. They are the Welcome-Swallow (Hirundo neoaJena), the Tree Swallow (Hylo­ c7wlidon nigricans caleyi), the Fairy Martin '01' Bottle Swallow (Lagenoplastes ariel), and the White-breasted Swallow (Ohera· mreca lC1tcosternon stonei). None is rconflned to South Aus­ tralia; 'the first theeebave been recorded from every part of the Australian Commonwealth, the fourth from every State except Tasmania, which it does not visit. Authorities differ considerably in their opinions as to the migratory habits of these birds on the Australian Continent. As regards 'I'asmania, all 'are agreed that they are purely migratory, leaving in: the winter, and returning next summer to nest. The flairy mrurtin is' probably only an occasional visitor, since Littler (Birds of Tas~ania) has not seen it. Gould (Handbook of the Birds 'of Australia) says of the welcome swallows-v'Dbe arrival of this bird in the southern portions of Australia is hailed as a welcome indication of the approach of .spring, and .is associated with precisely the same ideas as those popularly entertained respecting our own pretty swallow 'in Europe. The two species are, in fact, beautiful representatives of each other, and, assimilate ... in their migratory movements." Quoting Caley, he says further, "the earliest perjod of the year that I noticed the 'appearance of swallows. was July 12th, 1803, when 1 saw two . The latest period I 'observed them was 30th Ma~, 1806, when It number of them were flying high in the air." Gould also says, " ,u.

  • The Evolution of Nest Construction in Swallows (Hirundinidae) Is Associated with the Decrease of Clutch Size
    © Biologiezentrum Linz/Austria; download unter www.biologiezentrum.at Linzer biol. Beitr. 38/1 711-716 21.7.2006 The evolution of nest construction in swallows (Hirundinidae) is associated with the decrease of clutch size P. HENEBERG A b s t r a c t : Variability of the nest construction in swallows (Hirundinidae) is more diverse than in other families of oscine birds. I compared the nest-building behaviour with pooled data of clutch size and overall hatching success for 20 species of swallows. The clutch size was significantly higher in temperate cavity-adopting swallow species than in species using other nesting modes including species breeding in evolutionarily advanced mud nests (P<0.05) except of the burrow-excavating Bank Swallow. Decrease of the clutch size during the evolution of nest construction is not compensated by the increase of the overall hatching success. K e y w o r d s : Hirundinidae, nest construction, clutch size, evolution Birds use distinct methods to avoid nest-predation: active nest defence, nest camouflage and concealment or sheltered nesting. While large and powerful species prefer active nest-defence, swallows and martins usually prefer construction of sheltered nests (LLOYD 2004). The nests of swallows vary from natural cavities in trees and rocks, to self-exca- vated burrows to mud retorts and cups attached to vertical faces. Much attention has been devoted to the importance of controlling for phylogeny in com- parative tests (HARVEY & PAGEL 1991), including molecular phylogenetic studies of swallows (WINKLER & SHELDON 1993). Interactions between the nest-construction va- riability and the clutch size, however, had been ignored.

  • Birdquest Australia (Western and Christmas
    Chestnut-backed Button-quail in the north was a bonus, showing brilliantly for a long time – unheard of for this family (Andy Jensen) WESTERN AUSTRALIA 5/10 – 27 SEPTEMBER 2017 LEADER: ANDY JENSEN ASSISTANT: STUART PICKERING ! ! 1 BirdQuest Tour Report: Western Australia (including Christmas Island) 2017 www.birdquest-tours.com Western Shrike-tit was one of the many highlights in the southwest (Andy Jensen) Western Australia, if it were a country, would be the 10th largest in the world! The BirdQuest Western Australia (including Christmas Island) 2017 tour offered an unrivalled opportunity to cover a large portion of this area, as well as the offshore territory of Christmas Island (located closer to Indonesia than mainland Australia). Western Australia is a highly diverse region with a range of habitats. It has been shaped by the isolation caused by the surrounding deserts. This isolation has resulted in a richly diverse fauna, with a high degree of endemism. A must visit for any birder. This tour covered a wide range of the habitats Western Australia has to offer as is possible in three weeks, including the temperate Karri and Wandoo woodlands and mallee of the southwest, the coastal heathlands of the southcoast, dry scrub and extensive uncleared woodlands of the goldfields, coastal plains and mangroves around Broome, and the red-earth savannah habitats and tropical woodland of the Kimberley. The climate varied dramatically Conditions ranged from minus 1c in the Sterling Ranges where we were scraping ice off the windscreen, to nearly 40c in the Kimberley, where it was dust needing to be removed from the windscreen! We were fortunate with the weather – aside from a few minutes of drizzle as we staked out one of the skulkers in the Sterling Ranges, it remained dry the whole time.

  • OF the TOWNSVILLE REGION LAKE ROSS the Beautiful Lake Ross Stores Over 200,000 Megalitres of Water and Supplies up to 80% of Townsville’S Drinking Water
    BIRDS OF THE TOWNSVILLE REGION LAKE ROSS The beautiful Lake Ross stores over 200,000 megalitres of water and supplies up to 80% of Townsville’s drinking water. The Ross River Dam wall stretches 8.3km across the Ross River floodplain, providing additional flood mitigation benefit to downstream communities. The Dam’s extensive shallow margins and fringing woodlands provide habitat for over 200 species of birds. At times, the number of Australian Pelicans, Black Swans, Eurasian Coots and Hardhead ducks can run into the thousands – a magic sight to behold. The Dam is also the breeding area for the White-bellied Sea-Eagle and the Osprey. The park around the Dam and the base of the spillway are ideal habitat for bush birds. The borrow pits across the road from the dam also support a wide variety of water birds for some months after each wet season. Lake Ross and the borrow pits are located at the end of Riverway Drive, about 14km past Thuringowa Central. Birds likely to be seen include: Australasian Darter, Little Pied Cormorant, Australian Pelican, White-faced Heron, Little Egret, Eastern Great Egret, Intermediate Egret, Australian White Ibis, Royal Spoonbill, Black Kite, White-bellied Sea-Eagle, Australian Bustard, Rainbow Lorikeet, Pale-headed Rosella, Blue-winged Kookaburra, Rainbow Bee-eater, Helmeted Friarbird, Yellow Honeyeater, Brown Honeyeater, Spangled Drongo, White-bellied Cuckoo-shrike, Pied Butcherbird, Great Bowerbird, Nutmeg Mannikin, Olive-backed Sunbird. White-faced Heron ROSS RIVER The Ross River winds its way through Townsville from Ross Dam to the mouth of the river near the Townsville Port.

  • The 2008 Edition of the Adjutant. It Is, However, with a Touch of Sadness That I Write This Introduction to This Excellent, Rejuvenated and Revised Magazine
    Welcome to the 2008 edition of The Adjutant. It is, however, with a touch of sadness that I write this introduction to this excellent, rejuvenated and revised magazine. Let me explain. Earlier this year it became clear that our sister society, the Royal Air Force Ornithological Society (RAFOS), was not able to guarantee future funding for Osprey, our joint magazine. The Committee of the Army Ornithological Society (AOS) quickly came to the conclusion that it did not have the necessary resources to ‘go it alone’ and decided that Osprey would no longer be published. I am fully aware that my predecessor, Ian Nason, spent much time and energy on encouraging the start of Osprey, the first edition of which appeared as my tenure as Chairman of the AOS began. Maybe the demise of Osprey is a sign for me to move on, but first I must thank the joint editors of Osprey from inception, Simon Strickland (AOS) and Mike Blair (RAFOS), for their magnificent achievements over the years in providing such a first class magazine. Actually I am not going to hand over, not yet, as we are certain that the way the AOS Bulletin has progressed under its current editor, Andrew Bray, gives us a cheaper alternative and one which I wish to promote. We therefore have decided, for 2008 at least, to provide a new single publication with two parts reflecting both the differences and the synergy between Osprey and The Bulletin. A vote at our AGM in the Summer confirmed that this new magazine would be entitled The Adjutant (which was last published in 2000), headed with our re-energised logo, the more upright Adjutant Stork.
