Geoff Park will be leading our first walk for 2015 this Sunday (15 March) to the Rise and Shine Bushland Reserve which is south of Newstead (locate on Google maps). The walk will be fairly short (4 km). Either meet at the normal place, Continuing Education in Templeton Street at 9.30, or at the Newstead Post Office at 9.45 if this is more convenient. Alternatively you can meet at the Reserve at 10am.

Geoff has informed us that we are likely to see many native birds, perhaps even some early arriving Swift Parrots. Check out our walks page for more information on this and other walks planned for this year. You can find out more about the Rise and Shine Bushland Reserve here on Geoff’s blog. The page includes a link to a Reserve bird list.
