Thank you for joining us
And that’s where we’ll wrap up this live blog today. Thank you so much for hanging out with us to talk about birds. What better way to spend a spring lunchtime?
If you still haven’t got your fill, you can find all of our 2025 bird of the year stories, videos and more here. And if your favourite bird missed out? Well, never fear, bird of the year will be back in 2027 – and if the tawny can finally do it, any bird can. See you then!

If you have realised since getting into bird of the year that, actually, you think birds are kind of amazing and now you’re starting to notice how many different species there are around you, allow me to recommend you get involved with BirdLife Australia’s Aussie Bird Count.
It’s a huge, national citizen science bird study and it begins this coming Monday 20 October. Just by sitting down outside for 20 minutes, wherever you are, you can help build a national picture of the prevalence and variety of birdlife around Australia.
Head over to the Aussie Bird Count website to find all the details on how to register and take part.
