When submitting your report, please:
• include the date you saw the bird • include the location of the bird (coordinates or address) • include photographs of the birds • describe the leg colour band combinations • specify the number of birds observed • document the behavior of the birds • include any other relevant information
Regent Honeyeater sightings in Australia are becoming exceedingly rare. It’s crucial that we act promptly on any reported sightings and closely monitor these birds. Delays in reporting could result in missed chances to observe a banded bird, gather vital data, or identify critical breeding events.
