I participated in the Aussie Bird Count this year to record the birds in and around the old Burwood Colliery dam at Whitebridge.
To my delight, I identified 27 different species, and there were more in the treetops that I was unable to verify. If the dam was to go, this recorded population of birds, as well as the unrecorded ones, would be greatly affected, as would the environment and flora.
