- Statement
- <p>Bird surveys at Robson Creek were conducted using walking transects and are largely in line with the Transect method outlined in the <a href="https://birdata.birdlife.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2015/04/Survey-Techniques-Guide.pdf">Birdlife Australia survey technique</a> from the Birdlife Australia Atlas Project. A transect begins with a time stamp and when a bird is detected (heard or seen) the time of the observation was recorded, as is the number of individuals of that species. Each new observation within the transect was recorded to the minute, thus several observations of several species can occur in a one minute period. If it is believed the bird calling is the same bird seen or heard 10 minutes into the survey it was not re-recorded. </p>Surveys were conducted in all types of weather and were usually carried out between 7.30am and 10.30am.</p>
