Sunday, 20th Oct last chance to be involved in Aussie #bird count. I know will possibly interest @david and @SeaFury but suspect you may already be participating.
Aussies have rallied in the thousands, and the results are incredible:
🐦 3.4 million birds counted
🦅 104,000 checklists submitted
Let’s make this final day count —get your binos up for the #AussieBirdCount🦜
MY garden is all small birds so very difficult to identify some of them, they move so fast.
But I just discovered my fancy bird app has instant image and sound identification. So could confirm I really did see a New Holland Honeyeater and a Striated Pardelote!

Day one of participating in the Aussie Bird Count and had a disappointing 20 minutes (where'd they all go??), and today is looking like it might be worse. Windy and overcast, all birds seem to have taken shelter.
I don't love how precise the sightings map on the #AussieBirdCount app is.
It's not identifying anyone, but I feel bad for the person that lives at Number 11 two streets away that now has it on public record that they think they saw a Forest Raven in Templestowe, VIC
It’s that time of year again – the Aussie Bird Count! 🦜🦉🦅
