Aussie Readers discussion

If you love them or loathe them, this book is for you.

Are they remarkable birds admired for their bravery and uniqueness, or an evil invasion wreaking havoc in gardens and destroying our backyards?
Not many Australian birds are as controversial as Brush Turkeys. Sick and tired garden owners who find them no good, obnoxious, or a catastrophe stand against those who view them as uplifting and full of jaw-dropping surprises.
Read about all of it: the human-wildlife conflict and the uniqueness of an Australian icon bird!
Here is what you’ll discover in this first-ever comprehensive summary of all things Brush Turkey:
• Reasons behind their relentless and daring move into our suburbs
• How the media portrays them as fearless invaders and other things
• Little-known secrets about an unusual incubation method and approach to child-rearing
• Promiscuous and mischievous happenings on the incubation mounds
• Devoted parents who invest in their young so differently from other birds
• Indigenous and other knowledge about these native birds
• Methods for deterring them (tested, legally endorsed, fully or half-fully proven)
• Insider confessions from managers dealing with Brush Turkey conflicts
• How you can help them in the city
• Fun illustrations to highlight the results of many years of research on these birds

No matter which side you stand on, this book contains something for everyone: those who worry and want to find out how to deter them, those who’d love to learn more about the surprising behaviours and adaptations of Brush Turkeys, and those who need to manage the conflict in urban areas.

So I've heard - the story of the Taronga Zoo "liberty flock" (of Australian white Ibis) is astounding!

I've ordered a copy of your book - can't wait to read it!

Thanks, Sarah

Same. I mean they've got character and they've got gumption to just muck in around the suburbs. I love that.
