There are quite a few out there who are very
experienced field observers, who spend time in the field and also record their
sightings. This is where it ends!! No atlas forms!! This is
really quite tragic for the Atlas as this data may never end up where it should
and it could be quite vital in respect of the conservation of certain
species of our native birds.
I know many people are out there religiously
filling out forms and as a regional co-ordinator I am often snowed
under. Keep up the great work! I ask those who are not
completing atlas forms to please reconsider; the atlas needs your observations
and expertise. So do the birds!!
