Pictured is a Grey Fantail, captured on film by Kel Callaghan at our Action Bee on 05 August at our BushCare site beside Petrie Creek near the Woombye Rugby Grounds.

The birds and other animals are enjoying the native habitat we’ve been restoring there. If you’d like to join in, the next opportunities are as follows.

• Namba Creek on Saturday 19 August 2023 starting at 8am. (meet in The Model Railway Park off Florence St Nambour)

• Gulung Gung on Wednesday 23 August 2023 starting at 8am. (Parking is available in the NE part of Aldi Carpark in Howard St Nambour and then walk down to the creek by following the rough track that skirts the north of the carpark. Alternatively walk across the new park from Quota Park off Matthew St)

To join in the activities at these events you’ll need to come in “long everything” bush protective clothing including boots/shoes and a hat.

All tools required will be provided.

Then at around 10am we’ll finish with a well-deserved cuppa.
