Greetings fellow twitchers, ornithologists and bird lovers,
I am writing up a conference paper on Birding-Aus that I presented in
July and am
trying to locate any published research on birdwatchers in Australia.
Do you know of any
published studies of Australian birdwatchers/birdwatching that you
would recommend?
Regards, Laurie.
Hi Laurie,
Here's a list on birding reference that I've collated for something
else, for your information. Much of it deals with overseas research,
but
much deals with Australian material.
Let me know if you get any other feedback re this questions, and
receive
materials that I may have missed.
Cheers,
Tim Dolby
