PGA Links and Sanctuary Lakes are backing National Bird Day which is being held on 29th October 2007 by the Gould Group, formerly the Gould League.  

 

PGA Links has sponsored ten native birds to be included in an online education program which will be promoted to nine thousand schools throughout Australia. One of the birds is the migratory Red Necked Stint which flies thousands of kilometres to Sanctuary Lakes Resort each year from Siberia.  

 

Australia's first National Bird Day was created for children in 1909 and was introduced into schools with the support of The Gould League, an environmental education group, with the Prime Minister Alfred Deakin as its first President.

 

With the strong support of the national group, the Australasian Ornithologists' Union, The Gould League sponsored its first Bird Day in Victoria on 29 October 1909.
