Yes, great news that the $50,000 was raised to track the Australasian Bittern
A similar approach might be used if and when Bush Stone-curlews are released again in Canberra.

The $50,000 will be used for transmitters, tracking downloads, and other project costs, with small amount to the Pozible organisation. The list of supporters indicates quite a few COG members pledged support, and the COG committee has given
$2500 to the cause. I'm sure Matt will come back to a meeting at a future time to give us some results.
Many of you know I've got personal links to Leeton, Coleambally and Deniliquin, so it's a project close to my heart, so thank you all!
