Tree Martins in Crisis at Rundle Mall | Adelaide News
Description
Over 600 tree martins have died and more than 1,700 injured in Rundle Mall since December after being displaced by street netting installed in 2024. Forced into a high-traffic urban zone during their roosting season, birds collided with windows, wires, and buildings—some succumbing to stress. Businesses like Apple Store are installing reflective films to deter collisions, while councils clean droppings and manage complaints. Though no bird flu cases have been detected, officials are monitoring closely and collaborating on solutions for next year’s roosting season.
