[1]The globally endangered Australasian Bittern is one of the country's most poorly known birds, but recently a breeding population using rice crops has been found to occur in very significant numbers, yet nobody knows where they go after the rice has been harvested. This project [1] aims to raise the money for satellite tracking devices to uncover the secret life of this unusual bird.

The Bitterns in Rice Project [2]is a collaboration between Birdlife Australia [3], the Ricegrowers’ Association of Australia [4] (RGA), the Riverina Local Land Services [5], Murrumbidgee Landcare Inc and range of other organisations. It is aiming to raise $50,000 to satellite track at least seven bitterns, providing valuable ecological data and enabling people to follow the bird s' movements online.
