SUMMARY:Centenary Excursion to Dryandra National Park
DESCRIPTION:As part of our 100-year Anniversary\, we will visit Dryandra woodland\, including a visit to Barna Mia. Dryandra woodland is the largest remnant of native vegetation in the western Wheatbelt and well known and appreciated by our Club.  \n\n\n\n\nDryandra is home to magnificent trees and spectacular wildflowers in spring. The open eucalypt woodlands of white-barked wandoo and powderbark covered much of the Wheatbelt before it was cleared for farming. Thickets of rock sheoak and kwongan heath provide habitat for several of Dryandra’s rare species. \n\n\n\n\nWe might also see nocturnal wildlife\, some of the 24 mammal\, 98 bird and 41 reptile species that are all known to call Dryandra home\, including Western Australia’s state mammal emblem\, the numbat (Myrmecobius fasciatus). \n\n\n\nWe have booked four cottages at the Lions Village\, which will accommodate 16 to 20 people. Booking is required to ensure a bed in the cottages. The costs for two nights shared accommodation will depend on how many people attend (approx. $65 for 2 nights). Other members are welcome to join us for the whole or part of the excursion but would need to arrange their own accommodation (two campsites are available). Cost for a visit to Barna Mia will be around $25. \n\n\n\nTo book a place in one of the cottages\, a non-refundable deposit of $15 is needed to hold your place. Money should be paid into the Club’s bank account as soon as possible\, with reference Dryandra excursion (BSB 633000 Acc 168641629).  Further information will be provided after you have RSVP’d and booked. Contact the Club office for any questions. \n\n\n\nBring: Binoculars\, cameras\, bedding\, food for the stay\, etc.
