Community Monitoring at Stansfield Close

LMCC's Community Ecosystem Monitoring event today revealed that there were 40 native plants and 11 weeds in the area that was sampled.
There were local volunteers and council staff who laid out a 50 X 20m quadrat, aligned northeast, GPS coordinates were taken and counts of flora and fauna taken. 
Birds, habitat features, scats were all looked for. The idea is to get a really good idea of the environmental assets in our own backyard.
