Has there been any scientific studies of seasonal migration by Australian birds? Some birds from other countries are obvious migrants (like Lathams Snipe), but it seems like many endemic species migrate at least between altitudes if not north
and south. Various Robins and Honeyeaters come down from the ranges in winter. Many seem to migrate to the coast. I grew up thinking that bird migrations were largely a northern hemisphere phenomenon. The only migrants I thought about as a child were cuckoos.
Are there published studies about the seasonal migration of endemic birds?
