Hi Birders
On webcams, during the recent Spring/Summer period,
the Dept Public Works and NPWS installed a camera to monitor the use of
artificial roosting platforms by migratory shorebirds in the Hunter
Estuary. This was part of the NPWS and Ekerlogic's monitoring of
shorebirds in the estuary which recently concluded.
The camera was set to download data at a few
different times, encompassing the variation in weather, tides, time of day
etc. The focus on the camera was also able to changed at
the click of a mouse key.
Unfortunately live images are currently unable
to be viewed by the general public, however, it may happen in the near future,
particularly during the next migratory season.
Regards
Peter
