Tempe Birdos is celebrating their tenth year surveying the Tempe Wetlands and the group has identified 123 species of birds at the site – and counting!
Join us for a walk and talk around the site to hear about its rich biodiversity through bush regeneration, and how this supports a range of birds.
Virginia Niven and Isabella Robinson from Tempe Birdos will share their knowledge of the site, the types of birds living in different vegetation, tips on birdwatching and how to create your own birding list. Adam Ward, Council’s Senior Volunteer and Projects Officer will talk about ecological restoration, bushcare volunteering and local native plants at the site.
Please arrive by 7.45am for an 8am start. We will provide a morning tea at the end of the walk.
