Discovering the Secrets of Cryptic and Endangered Birds
21 May 2018
Over the last few years we have explored the on-ground ecological outcomes of our work in a dynamic two-way relationship with Liz Znidersic (@LizZnidersic) from Charles Sturt University (@ILWSCSU). Liz is interested in secretive wetland birds and uses many methods to look for and monitor these birds, including passive acoustic recording.

As part of our latest collaboration with Liz, Long-duration, false-colour spectrograms for detecting species in large audio data-sets (link), Liz created a video describing our work. We’re thrilled at the result and we’d like to share it with all of you:
This world-first study decoding recordings of endangered and cryptic species paves the way for future conservation efforts - a collaboration between QUT EcoAcoustics Research Group and Charles Sturt University
Clare Thomson (Wildcard Media) did all the hard work making the video. You can check out their other videos here.
