Waterbird Counts
One way to learn about wetland is by knowing the birds found there. Wetlands have going through changes along with population growth and city development. The composition and number of plants, animals or birds inhabited there changes as well. By conducting regular waterbird counts, we can monitor the changes through learning about the abundance and distribution of birds. Prompt actions can be undertaken if changes can be detected in the early stage. The negative impact can thus be reduced and improvement can be made.
Therefore, the results of waterbird counts provide important and fundamental information for environmental management and decision makers. Such information let us know the work required to ecological environment and explore ways to manage and operate the place with the government.
