Citizen Science

Residents, workers and travellers in the SA Arid Lands region are encouraged to get involved in the hunt for the critically endangered Plains-wanderer through a Citizen Science project.

Designed to gather information on this bird, we want to hear from you if you have seen a Plains-wanderer recently or historically. We're looking for information about the landscape, about the sounds you heard and about the bird itself.

If you see a bird you think could be a Plains-wanderer, you can get involved at bit.ly/3YJAW52 where you can provide information about the location and a description of where the sighting occurred, the date it was seen and your degree of confidence on the sighting. Photos would be highly beneficial.

This information will allow us to follow up with future surveys or monitoring.

If you have any questions or would prefer to chat to us directly, please contact our office on 8429 9666.
