Kangaroo Island Community Shorebirds Project

This project will continue to collect data for Birdlife Australia's Shorebirds 2020 project, providing information to help address key and emerging threats to shorebirds. Remapping Kangaroo Island shorebird areas and ongoing ID training will give volunteers the technical skills they require to conduct project work, thus ensuring high retention rates and ongoing success of the group's projects. The biannual/national 2014 Hooded Plover Census, development of a Kangaroo Island Shorebirds website, and ongoing newsletters and articles will continue to educate and engage the wider Kangaroo Island community.

本项目将持续为澳大利亚鸟类保护协会（Birdlife Australia）的《滨鸟2020》（Shorebirds 2020）项目收集数据，为应对滨鸟面临的各类关键及新兴生存威胁提供信息支撑。对袋鼠岛滨鸟栖息区域进行重新测绘，并开展持续性的物种识别培训，可帮助志愿者掌握开展项目工作所需的专业技能，进而保障项目团队的人员留存率与各项项目的长期成功推进。2014年启动的每半年一次的全国性冕鸻（Hooded Plover）普查、袋鼠岛滨鸟专属网站的搭建，以及持续性的通讯简报与科普文章发布，将持续面向更广泛的袋鼠岛社区开展科普教育与社群联动工作。
