Thousands of Australians submitted their findings to a national biodiversity study, with 3.6 million birds spotted in everyday backyards.The Aussie Bird Count is now the largest citizen science project in Australia, with the aim of stopping bird extinctions by 2032.
The week-long event saw 3.6 million birds and 597 different variants recorded nationally, with the largest number of sightings in New South Wales, Queensland and Victoria. According to Birdlife Australia, the attributes of each bird varied depending on the region — highlighting Australia's biodiversity.
"One thread linking the most successful birds that have been recorded living in the places where we live, is that they tend to be bolder, more aggressive species with a broad, generalist diet," he said. Birdlife chief executive Kate Millar said the count has become the largest citizen science project in Australia.
