Birdlife Castlemaine’s April 2020 bird walk: Cancelled

Posted on 19 March, 2020 by Ivan

Unfortunately, our partners at Birdlife Castlemaine have cancelled their monthly bird walk scheduled for 4 April 2020 at Rise and Shine Bushland Reserve VIC. Please see their notice of cancellation below.

If you can’t get out to your favourite spot in coming weeks you may like to sharpen your bird watching skills via the excellent eBird Quiz, which allows you to specify the location and time for each quiz you do. Try your skills on the eBird quiz choosing either images or bird calls from your local area (it will ask you to create an account or login first). And you can also check out our previous post on the eBird quiz or Merlin bird identification app.

‘The committee of BirdLife Castlemaine District Branch wishes to advise that because of the health concerns surrounding the COVID-19 pandemic, the bird walk scheduled for April 4 at the Rise and Shine Bushland Reserve will be cancelled. We will monitor the situation and advise if further walk cancellations are required. In the meantime, we are looking at other activities that individual bird watchers can undertake during this period of “social distancing”, so please watch out for further news!’

Best wishes,
Secretary
BirdLife Castlemaine District Branch
