Abstract

Starvation of nestlings and juveniles was the only natural cause of mortality recorded in the Black-necked Stork 'Ephippiorhynchus asiaticus australis' in New South Wales, and collision with powerlines constituted the main cause of anthropogenic mortality. Despite this mortality, the population apparently remained stable between 2003 and 2006, because of the recruitment of young birds from successful breeding seasons.
