Royal Australasian Ornithologists Union - Bird Observatories

Bird Observatories

Four Bird Observatories were established by the RAOU in order to provide accommodation and act as bases for research, education and recreation, in areas of particular interest and bird richness. Two of these, Barren Grounds Bird Observatory in NSW, and Rotamah Island Bird Observatory in Victoria, have since been closed for economic reasons. The two remaining observatories, both in Western Australia, are:

  • Broome Bird Observatory (BBO)
  • Eyre Bird Observatory (EBO)

Famous quotes containing the word bird:

    “And the one bird singing alone to his nest,
    And the one star over the tower.
    I thought of our little quarrels and strife,
    And the letter that brought me back my ring;
    And it all seem’d then, in the waste of life,”
    —“Owen” “Meredith” (1831–1891)
