We are a Parks Victoria Friends group that work under the scientific direction of the Beach-nesting bird project of BirdLife Australia. Our volunteers are part of a very successful Citizen Science collaboration. We work to improve the breeding success of beach-nesting birds, but particularly the federally listed, vulnerable, Hooded Plover.
