Purpose
Bird surveys were conducted to to provide a description of the bird community, including its richness and composition, and having established a baseline description to monitor the dynamics and phenology of the community over time. 
Lineage
Bird surveys at the Samford Peri-Urban 1 ha site were conducted between 2013 - 2017. Area search methodology was used for all surveys based on protocols described by Antos et al. (2008). Area searches involved searching a set route for a minimum of one hour, recording all species seen and numbers of those species, including species flying over if they have the potential to use the property, and recording weather conditions such as wind direction and strength, cloud cover and rainfall.
