Well done to Cumberland Bird Observers for getting this off the ground.

Let's Go Birdwatching
- Australia's first birdwatching TV series
The Cumberland Bird Observers Club is proud to present Australia's first
birdwatching TV series "Let's Go Birdwatching".
Created and hosted by the club's publicity officer, Andrew Patrick, this
four-part series looks at birds and birdwatching throughout the greater
Sydney region.
Each episode is themed around different types of birds starting with
backyard birds and moving on to waterbirds, seabirds and finally bush birds.
The series is not a wildlife documentary but is more of an instructional
guide for beginners. Each episode includes excellent footage of many of
Sydney's birds accompanied by information and identification pointers.
There are segments about binoculars, telescopes, field guides, birdwatching
hints and tips plus a discussion about some of Sydney's birdwatching
hotspots. Many of these segments are presented by club member Aimee
Freimanis. There are also segments about attracting birds to your garden
presented by long-time birdscaper Dr Tony Saunders.
Such a project, made entirely with volunteer labour, would not have been
possible without the generous help of many people. Of particular note are
the film crew Chris Saville, Andy Doldissen and Tony Peri. Extra special
thanks goes to Chris as he had the onerous task of post-production and
editing. The CBOC extends its heartfelt gratitude to all those who assisted
with this project.
The program is being broadcast by TVS, Channel 31, Sydney's new
community TV station at the following times:
