Flying far eastern curlew against a plain pale grey sky.

As the habitat improves, will #CallTrackers start to record the haunting curlew call & the bittern's boom?
Now we can find out.

Far eastern curlew on low wetland vegetation in Tasmania, showing off its immensely long, slightly downward curved bill.
This season, we can announce a new call recogniser in the software: for Critically Endangered FAR EASTERN CURLEWS, seen but rarely heard in #Tasmania.
It recognised calls from our 1st recordings near curlews, at dusk & dawn.
Where else will #CallTrackers detect them?

A few spots left for this #CallTrackers acoustic monitoring workshop by the Mersey Estuary in #Tasmania! This Thurs 27th Feb, 4-6 pm. Learn how to set a recorder up, & how this can help conserve noisy, elusive species & support some exciting restoration work...

Small green acoustic recorder set up on a light, portable pole, with forest and a creek surrounded by wetland (leading into Tooms Lake) behind.
We have 2 months left before the end of the season, and we're currently quite short of surveys.
Read what's involved, then book a square and a recorder: naturetrackers.au/projects/cal...
Questions? Just give CallTrackers HQ a hoy.

Australasian bittern hiding among reeds, eyeing the photographer dubiously and standing upright with bill pointing upwards to blend in. It's hard to make out through the reeds, but it's the size and shape of a stocky heron, with streaky cream and brown breast and long, solid bill. They're rarely seen - much easier to detect by the male's booming calls.
In #Tasmania? How about marking #WorldWetlandsDay by getting into the CallTrackers project? Help map & monitor elusive, Endangered Australasian Bittern booms, bat chirps & more. It's a fun adventure with a super-cool #bioacoustics gadget...

A dark green bioacoustic recorder is in the foreground, cable tied to a slim pole. Behind is wetland vegetation and a creek leading into a lake, and forest rising up a slope all round the right hand side of the lake and towards the viewer
…picking up a #CallTrackers acoustic recorder. The echidna showed no sign of noticing me - the dream nature observation.

The thing about field biology is that it gets you out into a whole heap of nature. Who knows what you’ll encounter on a #citizenscience species monitoring trip?
A couple of weeks ago I had this lovely experience on the way back from…
#CallTrackers
#WildOz 🧪🌏🌿🦉🦇
I've long been gathering & interpreting species monitoring data scholar.google.com.au/citations?vi...
In recent years have started coordinating monitoring through #citizenscience - naturetrackers.au/projects/ - including our #CallTrackers #bioacoustics project.
Would love to be added.
Oops & to clarify - #CallTrackers is all about #Bioacoustics!
I help coordinate #CallTrackers - #citizenscience to monitor population trends of noisy but elusive spp across #Tasmania. Starting with 🦇🦇 & Australasian bitterns.
