24.01.2022 Last chance to join an activity in the park this weekend with a short, sharp litter pickup morning at beautiful Wattamolla. We are running this on a Saturday to give those that work during the week a chance to participate. Starting at 8.00am on Saturday morning, we will work for just a couple of hours before the precinct gets busy.... Equipment provided, bring your own gloves if you have them and wear sturdy shoes or boots and long trousers. Bring your own snacks and drinks for a chat with other volunteers afterwards.
15.01.2022 9 enthuiastic volunteers from Friends of Royal and Toyal Bushies spent the morning at Middle Rill, behind Garie beach. We walked up the pretty little creek, past a satin bower bird's bower and up into the valley. Here we found several patches of pampas grass along and in the creek line and also up in the bush. There were other weeds there including cotton bush and scotch thistle. Still plenty more to dig out, so feel free to volunteer on our next day out. We should perhaps concentrate on the cotton bush before it seeds for next time.
12.01.2022 Following our pampas grass weeding today, came across these two deer, bold as brass on the side of the road in the middle of the day. Only had my camera with me to shoot these towo.
11.01.2022 Another follow-up story in the SMH this weekend on deer. This one reporting on the on-going culling program. Hardly making a dent in the population though. https://www.smh.com.au//yep-that-s-a-deer-cull-to-reduce-t
10.01.2022 Came across this roadkilll on the side of the road today, a young, harmless diamond python. So sad.
07.01.2022 Volunteer men and women (known as the Royal Bushies) are out in the RNP every Thursday making the park environment a better place for visitors and the natural flora and fauna. Site visits vary- Wattamolla, Little Marley, Reid's Flat, Jibbon Headland, The Old Post Office above Allambie Flat.... all beautiful, scenic and interesting places. Their Mission: remove weeds and invaders and tidy up overgrown tracks. Their targets: Formosa Lily, asparagus fern, watsonia lily, calla lilies, mother of millions, privet ......... It's a great job if you would like to spend a few hours with friendly knowledgeable people who are are passionate about the natural biodiversity of the environment.

05.01.2022 The NSW Parliament has recently introduced electronic petitions; signing takes less than a minute and I just signed this petition seeking action on feral horses in Kosciuszko A new NSW Parliament e-petition has been launched seeking action on out-of-control feral horse numbers in Kosciuszko National Park. Since the last horse petition was presented to the NSW Parliament in August 2019, the park remains without a horse management plan and the horse population in Kosciuszko N...ational Park has continued to grow. Rare alpine orchids, daisies and flowers like the Anemone buttercup (Anemoneus ranunculus) remain under threat from grazing and trampling by horses. https://www.parliament.nsw.gov.au//Pages/ePetition-details
