Flying foxes?
Can't say I've seen this in ATIS before this evening:

It has made semi-regular appearances on the ATIS from February to May for the past few years, and there is currently a Notam advising of the hazard.

Fascinating
Shows how good MY situational awareness is!
Another great example of the wealth of information on SAMB - thanks, Nige.

I guess it goes to show there's more to airports and aviation than just aircraft

If it flies ...
(even if it's a fruit bat) you'll find out all about it on SAMB!

As for the fly-out; the numbers within the Gardens are well down this year, and so far, the relocation being performed is going well. It is almost the perfect storm, for us, in that after three long years of research and data gathering, we are finally underway in removing them, and hopefully saving the heritage collection in the Palm Grove. At this stage, I am not aware of where they are going, but it is being monitored via GPS collars that have been attached to the animals. All of which is in accordance to both State and Federal approvals with the conditions of consent that were given originally three years ago, and modified upon revision over those few years... |

Brilliant, Bernie!
Fantastic - a pedant catching out a Virgo!
Mind you, remembering about those people in glass houses, I'd be rechecking that the GPS collars really are "in accordance to both State and Federal approvals ..."

If anything ends up in our freezer with a GPS collar attached, I'll let you know

Approved by the Ethics Committee... there was a fair bit of conjecture as to what/how, and the collars that they are wearing are good for several years with batt life is concerned...
If ANY turn up Nigel, be it collar or banding, could you let me know anyway?? |
