SUMMARY:DRB Presents: Paul H Brown on Dryandra Woodland National Park’s mammals and endemic south-west birds
DESCRIPTION:Paul H Brown will talk about Dryandra Woodland National Park’s mammals and endemic south-west birds \nNote: no RSVP required. \nCOVID19: Even though restrictions have eased\, we will still encourage members and visitors to take precautions and please do not attend if unwell. \nSpeaker: Paul H Brown is the author of DRYANDRA WOODLANDS NATIONAL PARK: Unique mammals and south-west endemic birds (2025) \n  \nTopic: \nYou are invited to a talk by this author on Narrogin’s Dryandra Woodland. The book describes Dryandra Woodland National Park’s 27 mammals\, 155 bush birds\, vegetation\, predator control and its fantastic landscapes. It is the first book on Dryandra’s wildlife since Vince Serventy’s 1970 book ‘Dryandra: The story of an Australian Forest’. \nJoin Paul for a chat on why he wrote the book and a few snippets from the book and the animals it describes. \nSouth-west Australia is a biodiversity hotspot. Clearing\, foxes\, feral cats and bushland degradation have devastated the mammals and birds of WA’s Wheatbelt region. However\, the 30\,000ha Dryandra Woodland is an oasis for many unique mammals that once occurred across the Australian continent\, and it protects a nearly complete list of native bush birds. You can see the Numbat\, Woylie\, elusive Echidna and Chuditch (Western Quoll) – maybe in a single visit. \nThe south-west is also renowned for its endemic bird species and subspecies. Paul has described and provided photos of 38 of these birds\, plus another seven threatened and ground nesting birds. He provides the full list of 155 birds found in Dryandra. \nPaul (0466 827 550; brownieph60@gmail.com ) can exchange your cash (or card) for a copy of his book – $50.00 each. \nPlus: \n\nKids’ talk – one of your younger members will be giving a 5 minutes kids’ talk.\nBoffins talk – A member will give an 8 minute specialist subject talk.\n“Nature road show”. Members and visitors are encouraged to bring items to place on the display table or to send photographs to the MC in advance\, e.g. a sample flower\, an insect\, and so on – anything of natural history interest that has legally been obtained. If we have time\, one of our experts will identify them or briefly talk about them\, or the person bringing them can talk about where they saw it\, etc. Photographs are particularly welcome\, as everyone can see them. If you wish to show a photograph please email it\, no later than the Wednesday before the meeting\, to our MC for this night\, and she/he will include it on the PowerPoint slides. We have a dedicated email for this purpose: natclub@webco.com.au\nThing of the month / Things coming up next month: These two presentations are about things in nature happening this month and things coming up\, so if you have any photos or information\, send them to: natclub@webco.com.au\nDoor prizes: You could also be the lucky winner of a door prize.

We finish formal proceedings no later than 9.30pm. \nDonation: All this for only a donation of $3 per person for adult members ($0 for child members)\, and $5 per adult visitor and $1 per visiting child to help with the costs of running the club\, venue hire\, insurance and so on.  Please bring the right CASH to help us avoid long queues. Thanks.
