Hampton St Link, Carey Bay Wetlands and Burnage Reserve have had a good late winter spruce up and should be ready for spring, which seems to be here already. The Rails, Finches, Plovers and many other birds are making the most of the landcaring efforts and are often very close and busy feeding when we're working.
Carey Bay Wetlands benefitted from National Tree Day with 550 new plants installed in record time by 24 locals. They are settling in to make the most of the great conditions.
Gurranba Reserve is the focus reserve for September and nature is providing a surprising array of welcome additions being helped along by some weed removal, which is especially satisfying.
One addition we hope not to discover are the `barker nests’ that have sprung up since the change of the leash free area from Birriban.
The relocation of the leash free area freed the children’s playground from incursion by dogs of varying forms. Unfortunately now the local wildlife in the bushland remnants play hide & seek with the dogs straying from the large mown areas as they leave reminders of their presence.
Please owners ..spare us this stinky problem by keeping your dogs in the mown areas and picking up after them as required by council.
