Ornithology in the Pacific

Abstract

The 2nd Southern Hemisphere Ornithological Congress (SHOC II) was held at Griffith University, Brisbane from the 27th of June to the 2nd of July. Ornithological symposia and congresses are frequent events with multiple international and regional meetings held annually in North America and Europe. But for Australasia, and by default the South Pacific, it was a special and long anticipated event.
