Science for Saving Species Research findings factsheet Project 3.2.6 Does culling noisy miners have conservation benefits for small woodland birds? Evidence from 45 removals In brief Background The noisy miner (Manorina Noisy miners are native Australian intermittently over the past three melanocephala) is a native Australian honeyeaters that form colonies decades, but with varying success. honeyeater that lives in colonies, and aggressively displace other We aimed to determine which and aggressively displaces many woodland birds from areas methods or ecological conditions woodland bird species from the they occupy. Habitat clearing, led to successful noisy miner habitat it occupies. Following habitat fragmentation, and degradation removals, in terms of both reducing clearing, fragmentation and land- has created more suitable habitat noisy miner density and increasing use change (e.g., livestock grazing), for noisy miners. Their impacts the diversity and abundance of vegetation structu
