As part of her ANU PhD project on Indian Mynas,
Kate Grarock is looking for additional residents of
:
Pearce (and surrounding
parts of Chifley and Torrens)
Kambah (south of
Drakeford Drive only)
Kaleen (and adjacent
parts of southern Giralang)
who would be willing to have trapping nest boxes
installed in their front gardens.
The proposed arrangement is that Kate or
her assistant would install the box, which would be inspected regularly by
the residents for signs of
occupation/nesting by native birds, mynas, starlings or bees.
Residents would be asked to report nesting or other
occupation to Kate, who would then arrange to inspect the box, record details of
nesting and remove any mynas, starlings or bees.
If interested, please contact Kate at: or on her
mobile: 0417 612 614.
Please provide your street address, as some
addresses may be outside the survey area.
Cheers,
Bruce Lindenmayer
