SUMMARY:Ollie Worrell Reserve\, High Wycombe  "Sit and stand bird watching excursion and bird photography mentoring"
DESCRIPTION:DRB Excursion: Leaders\, renowned Naturalists Rachel and Mike Green \nOllie Worrell Reserve in High Wycombe has a permanent standing lake with many bird species. E-bird has recorded 84 species of birds there. Our excursion leaders\, Mike and Rachel\, have been visiting the reserve regularly since November 2024 and have been impressed with the different bird species they have seen. There are even two birds on the E-bird list they have never seen anywhere. They have seen a Reed Warbler’s nest with chicks\, Dusky Moorhen with chicks\, a Great Cormorant\, a group of Hardheads\, Musk Ducks\, a Darter and several other birds of interest. \nThe opportunity to walk around the lake is limited\, but some seats are supplied\, and they are excellent places to observe the lake\, the island\, and the extensive reeds. People can also bring their own chairs. It is near Abernethy Road\, so traffic can be noisy\, but on the opposite side of the lake\, where we will predominantly be focused\, it is quieter. \nThis excursion will be ideal for beginner bird-watchers and those with moderate experience. Mike is an experienced bird watcher and will provide help with bird identification and sightings. Rachel is an amateur bird photographer and will be available to help people learn some extra techniques for bird photography. This will be ideal for bird photography beginners or those amateurs who want to improve the bird pictures they get. It doesn’t matter what kind of camera you have. \nThere is a flat concrete path around the best part of the lake\, providing access for those with walkers\, wheelchairs\, disabilities\, etc. \nPlease note that there are no facilities\, and car parking is available at Mathew Gibney Catholic School next door or on Worrell Avenue. We will meet at the oval entrance next to the Worrell Avenue reserve\, off Abernethy Road. \nWe anticipate having several visitors from Mike’s bird workshops attending from the local area. \nBring your binoculars. Watch out for the Weather and wear suitable clothing and shoes.\n\n9.30 am – 11 am.

SUMMARY:Excursion Fremantle Shipwrecks Museum
DESCRIPTION:Dive into the fascinating history of Australia’s oldest shipwrecks. The WA Shipwrecks Museum is recognised as the foremost maritime archaeology museum in the southern hemisphere. Steeped in history\, the museum galleries house hundreds of relics from ships wrecked along WA’s treacherous coastline\, including the original timbers from Batavia (wrecked in 1629)\, the de Vlamingh Dish\, and also countless artefacts from the Dutch shipwrecks Zuytdorp\, Zeewijk and Vergulde Draeck. \n\n\n\nImage courtesy WA Shipwrecks Museum \n\n\n\n\n\n\nGetting there: There is nearby paid car parking and it is a 10-15 minute walk from the train station and bus terminus. \n\n\n\nMeet: At 10.30 am\, outside the Museum entrance. Please be aware that the WA Shipwrecks Museum does not have cloaking facilities or bag storage areas. As a consequence\, luggage and bags should not be taken into the Museum.  \n\n\n\nAn introduction to the Museum will be given by the volunteer guides. This will take approximately 45 minutes. The remainder of the time will be yours to see the various exhibitions of all the many ships wrecked off our coast. \n\n\n\nCost: The Museum is free but you are encouraged to give a donation to help fund their conservation work. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nContact: Margaret or the Office before Wednesday May 28 or just RSVP if you are coming so we can be sure that Museum guides know the size of the group.
