Birdata workshop – 23 June 2019
Posted on 6 June, 2019 by Jess
BirdLife Castlemaine District and Connecting Country are partnering to bring you a new workshop on how to use the Birdata app to record bird surveys on your smartphone (both Android and iPhone). No experience is required. We’ll provide training on how to do a 20 minute – 2 hectare search using your phone.
Surveys can also be recorded on paper if necessary. However, if you have a smartphone, using the Birdata app is quick and easy, and saves time on data entry.

Here’s what we’ll cover at the workshop:
- What is a 2 ha area count and how do you do it.
- How to use Birdata and record a survey.
- Substantial afternoon tea!
- Putting theory into practice by completing a survey in the field.
When: Sunday 23 June 2019 at 1:00 pm
Where: Tea Room, Castlemaine Botanical Gardens, Downes Rd, Castlemaine VIC
