This book presents data from over 50 years of avian research across the Cumberland Plain, documents the changes in community structure and records the decline and demise of many species. It establishes baseline data that will be extremely valuable for researchers and bird enthusiasts in years to come as the effects of climate change become increasingly apparent.
