Thanks for passing this on, Julian.
It highlights the fact that information such as this, posted to the
list, does not get into any databases unless the subscriber also enters
it into COG's data management system, eBird Australia or Birdlife
Australia's Birdata. So far as I know, reports submitted directly to the
Canberra Nature Map or to the Atlas of Living Australia are not, at
present, incorporated into other databases.
I wonder if, among our approx 350 subscribers, there might be someone
willing to volunteer to get this type of report into COG's database? It
may entail a commitment of a couple of hours, or fewer, a week.
Thanks - David
