Good to see Jen Spry, encouraging people to atlas their data.
It is very important that all birdos/naturalists forward ALL their
sightings to the state atlas or other plant/animal database. Without this
knowledge we cannot collectively and effectively manage our natural
heritage. There's alot of 'little bird books' out there with lots of data
I suspect and most of it will end up being lost ...
In Victoria the primary vertebrate & invertebrate fauna database is the
Atlas of Victorian Wildlife (AVW). My colleagues in the AVW section can
provide AVW Field Data Books (free) to anyone interested (Australia post
address required) in making their observations available to help manage
our Victorian fauna.
Those interested can contact me directly.
cheers, Martin
