Hi Craig
I don't have any direct data on what you want, but the garden
bird surveys run in Queensland (predominantly in the SE :
Woodall 2002 Sunbird 32: 37-51) indicate
what is present in suburban gardens (ie after development)
and you could compare that with the avifauna of the area
about to be developed.
I think that the summary is that small birds disappear and only
the larger ones survive: the top 5 were: Rainbow Lorikeet, Laughing
Kookaburra, Australian Magpie, Torresian Crow and Magpielark.
I hope that this helps
Peter

Can anyone suggest any good references for the impact of urban
development, particularly expansion of housing, and the effects on
native birdlife, including which species are particularly susceptible
and which are able to cope. I am looking at this predominantly from a
Brisbane perspective but any good data might be useful.
