Samford Ecological Research Facility Bird Survey
The TERN citizen science fauna monitoring pilot project aims to collect long-term monitoring data using the TERN standard monitoring protocol for birds. In May 2021, TERN launched a citizen science project designed to monitor bird biodiversity at the Samford Ecological Research Facility (SERF) in peri-urban Brisbane, Queensland, Australia, in collaboration with Queensland University of Technology and the Samford Eco-Corridor community group. Bird monitoring is undertaken quarterly by citizen scientists using TERN standardised monitoring protocols which are based on the Birds Australia systematic bird survey ‘2 ha 20 minute search’ method.

- Purpose
- Environmental contextual data collected alongside biodiversity data through this citizen science program. The two 2 hectare bird monitoring plots are aligned with TERN 'AusPlots' 1 hectare soil and vegetation monitoring plots at this site to provide fauna data alongside other environmental data collected at the SERF site.
