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:Serventy Memorial Lecture 2025
DESCRIPTION:Biotic interactions – the essence of nature conservation\n\n\n\nSouthwestern Australia has a unique natural heritage. Our ecosystems contain many complex interactions between plants\, animals and fungi. Prof. Lamont will outline examples of these interactions such as occur with the Albany pitcher plant\, orchid mimicry\, the woylie\, and black cockatoos. He will explain how these cycles form an essential part of the environment that we all love and depend on. Content has been tailored for senior high school students and above. \n\n\n\nPurchase you ticket now.

SUMMARY:Railway Track Walk Glen Forrest to Darlington
DESCRIPTION:Our apologies this event has been cancelled due to low attendance \nWe previously arranged this event in 2023 and had to cancel due to extreme hot weather\, hoping earlier in the year  will be fine! \nMeet at Morgan John Morgan Reserve Glen Forrest  9.30am  include time for café or cuppa before walk back ( 6 km in total). or arrange a pick up. It follows the original Eastern Railway Stage 2 route \nHistory of the railway and today’s wildflowers and wildlife**  Construction of this Stage 2 of the Eastern Railway commenced in 1882 and was completed in 1884. The builder was J.W. Wright\, assisted by Edward Keane. This route ran from Guildford to Chidlow’s Well via Darlington and Glen Forrest. All the work was done by manual labour and the evidence of blast marks and drill holes can still be seen along the line. During the construction\, pipe clay was encountered at the big cutting later called the ‘Devils Terror’. This required a deviation of the line and the re-routing of Nyaania Creek south of the new alignment. This work added additional costs and time to the project. The inclines on this line were too great for heavy railway loads and an alternative railway route was added via Swan View/Hovea/Parkerville. This latter section became the main line around a decade later with passenger services being carried by both. The Darlington/Glen Forrest railway section closed in Jan 1954\, due to falling revenue\,. \n** courtesy Darlington History Group Inc

SUMMARY:William Henry Harvey and his Western Australian Seaweeds
DESCRIPTION:Dr John Huisman \nThis talk at the main club evening will feature  Dr John Huisman sharing about William Henry Harvey and his Western Australian Seaweeds. \nJohn’s presentation will give a general overview of the history and current state of seaweed diversity in the Perth region\, but then concentrate on his efforts to clarify the identities of several species that were described by Irish botanist William Henry Harvey in 1855\, but since that time have defied attempts to place them in appropriate genera. \nDr Huisman is the Curator of the Western Australian Herbarium (Department of Biodiversity\, Conservation and Attractions) and also undertakes taxonomic research into the Western Australian marine plants. Other than a two year sojourn to the Hawaiian Islands\, he has pursued a goal of a State-wide marine Flora since moving to Western Australia in 1985. John has written ten books and over 230 articles and chapters describing various seaweed related topics\, including the recent pictorial guide\, ‘Marine Plants of Australia (revised and updated)’ in 2023\, which depicts over 640 species\, mostly photographed in situ. \n  \n  \n

SUMMARY:DRB is Meeting Friends of Greater Brixton Wetlands
DESCRIPTION:Bush Forever Site 387 – Greater Brixton Street Wetlands\, Kenwick. Meet at end of Alton Street\,  Kenwick 830 for 9am start \nWhile the wetlands only cover 19 hectares\, they contain many different vegetated wetlands with fringing vegetation in or near to the original condition\, support an outstanding flora diversity with at least 518 native taxa and comprising a third of the taxa recorded on the Swan Coastal Plain.  This includes many plant communities that are rare or endangered and in need of species protection. This protected area/bushland management boundary of bushland within the boundaries of the Site are not accurately mapped. Areas of bushland within the boundaries of the Site have been recently cleared. \nThe Wetlands support over 80 special wildflowers that are either rare and endangered; or have only recently been discovered by botanists; or are uncommon on the Swan Coastal Plain. They are also habitat for the Quenda (Southern Brown Bandicoot)\, waterbirds and many native terrestrial and aquatic animals as well as for endangered Carnaby’s Black Cocktoos. \nBrixton Street Wetlands are accessed via Brixton Street and Alton Street\, with the main entry and site lookout off Alton Street where we will connect to hear the work of the friends group
