Greetings!
For those of you that would like to learn more about birds, or are already avid bird watchers, you might want to join the Friends of Merri Creek Birdwatch survey which will be happening at Coburg Lake on Sunday 8 May (next Sunday). Meet in Lake Grove car park near Harry Atkinson Centre, Coburg. No need to register beforehand. Beginner-birders are welcome, as well as experienced birders. Bring binoculars if you have them, and closed-in footwear, sun hat or raingear if necessary, and drinking water. No dogs, please. Keep an eye out for snakes, especially if walking through grass near water.
Also, in addition to our two regular working bees which are listed below, we also have an additional session this month at Coburg Lake Rocky Outcrop (north side of lake, just down from De Chene Pde) on Wednesday 25th of May from 10 am – 12 noon. This session will be run in partnership with Friends of the Merri Creek Wednesday Volunteers, Moreland Council and Merri Creek Management Committee. The meeting spot is marked in red on this google map.
Our regular working bees, to which all are welcome:
1. Wednesday 4th of May, and 1st Wednesday of every month at the Rocky Outcrop at Coburg Lake, from 9.30 am – 10.30 am, led by Zoe. This site is on the north side of the lake, just down from De Chene Pde, Coburg North and between the toilets and the flying fox playground,.
2. Friday from 9.30 – 11.30 am at the eastern end of Ida Street, Coburg North, on the creek, led by Ian.
See you on the creek!
Warm regards,
Emma
