Overview: An evening event on biodiversity of the Murray River, featuring guest presenters who will highlight species such as turtles (James Van Dyke, La Trobe Uni) and birds (BridLife TBC), as well as farm wetlands of the region (NSW BCT). Presentations will be accompanied by a sit-down dinner. Additionally, turtle nest protection materials, aquatic vegetation samples and macroinvertebrates will be set up as an interactive display. An optional “after dark” walk will be available to participants who wish to spotlight around the local park where gliders have been seen previously. We will invite Traditional Custodians from Aboriginal Cultural Heritage Education to provide a Welcome to Country Ceremony.
Aim: This event aims to engage the local community and promote knowledge sharing for local biodiversity awareness and conservation actions.
