EcoBirds
provides general information on birds & birding, and gives direct
access to more detailed technical and related ecological information on
birds in EcoPort. Much of
the current bird-related information available through the Internet describes
some species or other bird-related information in isolation or in part.
Through EcoBirds,
birding information is
presented in a global ecological context, i.e. the complex web of life,
wherever possible. This allows us:
- an understanding of ecological function;
- a
better understanding of habitat;
- a
better understanding of food
sources;
- a
better understanding of ecological threats;
- a
better understanding of the status of the birds; and
- improved
insight into interactions with other organisms through a variety
of different ecological perspectives (e.g. within the context
of a normal scientific description, conservation, captivity, or
even as a food source).
Navigation in EcoBirds
is through
the menu bar at the top of each page, and side bar when additional pages
are available. EcoBirds
is intended
for people with varying levels of expertise and knowledge. With the
basic bird-related information that you require available through this
site it should allow you to enjoy birds more and get more involved in
the detailed technical information available through these pages. Should
you wish to participate in building this knowledge system, please go
to the participate page
for more information.
Enjoy
it, and if you have any suggestions, ideas, comments or queries, please
send EcoBirds
your comments.
