What does Brigalow Birds Educational Project do?
We showcase the birds of our special ecosystem, acknowledged as being unique in the world. We have researched, collected and presented a large amount of material to publish in our book and DVD, children’s cards and activities. This includes descriptions, images, maps, bird calls and many more features to inform and help identification. We will also give suggestions on some of the best birding sites in our area.
We facilitate the understanding of the relationships existing between the brigalow and its bird species. This knowledge will pave the way to a more detailed research into and the acceptance of the importance of all ecosystems and their fauna.
We create products that make bird information easily accessible to all adults and children.
We encourage conservation. Brigalow forests were initially cleared without regard for native fauna but new understandings indicate that the brigalow is essential for the protection of its fauna. Brigalow Birds contributes to this knowledge and points the way to sustainable conservation practices.
