DESCRIPTION
Our next Birds of the World Discovery webinar features
Dr. Steve Debus, an ornithologist from New South Wales, Australia and author of The Birds of Prey of Australia, A Field Guide (2019) and Australian
Falcons: Ecology, Behaviour and Conservation (2022).
Steve is an associate editor with
Birds of the World and recently updated the
Black Falcon species account. Steve has a particular admiration for this little-studied Australian endemic which was recently discovered to have genetic ties to the hierofalcons. In his spare time, he and a colleague conducted
field studies of the Black Falcon, which led to several papers on the breeding biology, behaviour and foraging ecology of the species. Steve will walk us through the fascinating life history of this enigmatic species.
