SUMMARY:The marvel of bird migration
DESCRIPTION:Join Lou Scampoli\, a Birdlife WA volunteer\, discussing the marvel of bird migration. \nBirds migrate in many ways and for a number of reasons and we will detail why they migrate\, the different forms of migration\, how they navigate and the numerous hazards they face. Be introduced to the migratory patterns of the Flame Robin\, Tasmanian Silvereye\, Rainbow Bee-eater and others. Hear about the incredible voyage of our migratory shorebirds and find out which shorebirds are considered ‘world champions’ of distance and altitude migration. \nThere will also be a short focus talk by Alex Chapman\, botanist and citizen science advocate\, on Florabase and citizen science.

The last bird walk at Broz Park was so popular that we are running it again. This time in the month of August when different birds are expected and there should be water in the wetland.

They’ve recorded over 64 species here\, so far. They are also long-standing members of the Darling Range Branch of the WA Naturalists’ Club.\n\nEveryone who attends will be given a FREE copy of the Broz Park book\, if you haven’t already got one. This will help you look for and identify the birds. Rachel and Mike may put your bird identification skills to the test with a quiz to find specific birds. Of course\, you can use the book to help you!\n\nBroz Park has a sealed easy walking track all around its wetland and lake. It has a bird hide\, toilets\, trees\, native flowers\, BBQs\, seats with shelters\, a water fountain\, and of course\, the birds. The path is suitable for people with walking frames and wheelchairs.\n\nThe Shire of Mundaring supported by Natural Resource Management (NRM) and other organisations are working to improve the health of the wetland and this is a great opportunity to see this important work.\n\nThanks to the Shire of Mundaring who are sponsoring and organising this event and have invited us to join them.

SUMMARY:Unearthing Western Australia's extraordinary trapdoor spider diversity
DESCRIPTION:Western Australia supports an extraordinary diversity of trapdoor and other mygalomorph spiders\, much of which remains undescribed or poorly understood. In this talk\, Jeremy will draw on current research at the Western Australian Museum to explore how fieldwork\, museum collections\, morphology and DNA are helping to uncover this diversity\, understand how species are distributed across the landscape\, and ultimately inform their conservation. \nJeremy is Curator of Arachnids and Myriapods at the Western Australian Museum. His current research focuses on the taxonomy\, evolution and conservation of Australian mygalomorph spiders\, including trapdoor and wishbone spiders. He combines museum collections\, fieldwork\, morphology and molecular data to document species diversity and better understand how these spiders have diversified across Australian landscapes. \nPhoto left: Jeremy digging for trapdoor – photo credit Bryan Lessard; right: Idiosoma sp. ‘dome-door’ – burrow.

SUMMARY:NSB: Climate Change-From the Atlas to Alaska
DESCRIPTION:Photo Credit: Mike Norman \n  \nA double-header. Our two speakers have recently returned from two very different journeys in two very different parts of the world. However\, what they both witnessed was strikingly similar\, the effects of climate change. \nMike Norman\, a long standing bushland and coastcare coordinator\, travelled to Europe again after mountain climbing/ hiking in Italy\, Switzerland and France there with his Polish friends 25 years ago. His observations further confirmed the changes being caused by global warming\, and he considers where we are most likely heading. \nPeter Stephenson\, retired Principal Research Scientist at the WA Department of Fisheries and now a consultant on commercial fish populations\, was commissioned to study the dramatic change in fish stock in Alaskan waters. What he found\, even astounded him.

SUMMARY:Jasper Dean will talk about the Wondrous World of Insects (Plus DRB Nats AGM) (DRB)
DESCRIPTION:Jasper Dean will talk about the Wondrous World of Insects (Plus DRB Nats AGM) (DRB) \nAGM: Please note that the DRB branch AGM will be held at the beginning of this meeting prior to Jasper’s talk. \n\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.\n\nSpeaker:\n\nJasper Dean\n\nTopic:\n   \n\nJasper gave a talk to the Main club of the WA Nats in November 2025. He has agreed to give another talk to our branch\, with some changes to suit our audience.\n\nHere is the review of his last talk posted on the WA Nats newsletter:\n\n\n“Our speaker was Jasper Dean. Jasper is the current secretary of the Perth Insect Study Society\, and is studying an unusual combination at UWA: Conservation Biology and English. During his gap year\, he worked at Kings Park as an Education Assistant. He enjoys making models of insects from recycled materials\, and the Bug Zoo in Canada is one of his favourite places in the world. After showing us his insect tattoos\, he delivered his talk in a light-hearted and entertaining way\, and his enthusiasm shone through.  \nIn Australia\, there are 3000 species of orthopterans\, or straight-winged insects. They make a loud noise by rubbing body parts together (stridulation). They are divided into the katydids and crickets (Ensifera) and the grasshoppers and locusts (Caelifera).  \nThe Ensifera have long\, hair-like antennae\, make their noise by rubbing their wings against their back legs\, and have their ears on their forelegs. In contrast\, the Caelifera have short antennae\, make their noise by rubbing their back legs together\, and have their ears on the side of the first abdominal segment.  \nKatydids are also called bush crickets\, especially in Australia\, although they are not the same as true crickets. (Hence the need for scientific nomenclature\, and Jasper explained some of the interesting etymology of those Latin names). Katydids are flattened laterally. Jasper showed us some that look like leaves\, and even some with holes and blemishes to make them resemble real leaves. One in 500 has a mutation that makes them bright pink! Katydids mostly eat plant material\, but some prey on insects. Some toss their faeces away to deter predators (Look out!). Lost your thermometer? You can use the chirping rate of katydids to determine the temperature. \nAnother group of insects is the Odonata. This order is divided into two major groups – the dragonflies\, which rest with their wings outstretched\, and the damselflies\, with wings folded along the body when at rest.  There are other differences as well\, such as where they lay their eggs.  Their immature stage is called a naiad\, which means an aquatic nymph stage. They live in water and are very well camouflaged.” \n\n\n\n\n\nPlus:\n\n\nFocus/ Boffins talk – A member will give a short talk. No focus/ boffins talk due to AGM.  \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 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 her 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 make sure there are prizes for both members and visitors.\nRaffle: We will have a great raffle  – please raid your piggy bank for a bit more cash\, $5 for 3 tickets.\n\nTime: Please come at 7.15pm or earlier if you wish\, for a 7.30pm start as we start promptly. We are open from 6.45pm. 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.  We do not have EFTPOS facilities yet.\nEntrance: It is a condition of entry that everyone signs in on arrival\, thank you.\nParking: Free parking right outside.\nWheelchair access: Everything is on one level.\nToilets: Are inside.\nBookings: No bookings required.\nSee you there for a fabulous night.
