It is a pity that it takes the slaughter of a Night Parrot by a feral cat to
get some people up in in arms baying for action.
Whether it is the death of Night Parrot or a Peaceful Dove, I feel it is well
passed time that a concerted effort by the birding world be made to kick the
‘powers to be’ into action re the out of control feral cat problem. Hopefully,
some of the vocal deep thinkers out there could guide us ordinary every birders
into ways we can establish some positive action. Postings on Birding-Aus and
blogs etc would not even cause a ripple. What can we do and how can we do it.
Rather than rhetoric, let’s be pro-active and get something moving before it
is too late; not only for the Night Parrot but for those little beauties that
frequent my backyard.
