BIRDS OF BENDERING AND WEST BENDERING NATURE RESERVES

WA Museum Records and Supplements | Updated 9 years ago

Introduction: The first substantial publication on birds of the eastern wheatbelt was that by Crossman (1909). He published an annotated list of birds of Cumminin Pastoral Lease which includes the present town of Narembeen (ca 30 km north of the Bendering Reserves). Crossman's paper is important because it presents data on birds of the area before clearing for agriculture.
