Re: FW: FW: [canberrabirds] ANU Campus Bird Monitoring

There is a very large myna roost at the corner of Barrie Drive and Marcus Clark. I have seen birds fly in to it from both the Turner side and the ANU side of Barrie Drive.

Myna populations remain stable or increase only where they are able to occupy safe nest cavities (undetected, inaccessible or tolerated by property managers).  They cannot establish or maintain  a population in places where there are no available cavities.  The future of mynas on the ANU campus and its associated GBS is in the hands of relevant property managers.

The comparison with COG GBS data is worth a comment.   The period for the comparison is presumably 2002-2012.  I am surprised the PB Duck and Wood Duck respectively have the 3^rd and 4^th greatest GBS increase for that period.   I am surprised the myna has the 5^th greatest increase given a reported decline in more recent years [?]
