21.01.2022 Wouldn’t it be good to have something like this on the Northern end of the coast

19.01.2022 This sculpture was created from large old tree that was cut down. The tree had split and posed a danger. Go for a walk through Yaroomba Bushland park andcjeck it out. Thanks to Sunshine Coast Council for organising this public art gem.

11.01.2022 CORAL SPAWNING UNDERWAY OFF COAST BEACHES If you've been wondering what is floating in waters off our coastline, local photographer Doug Bazley has the explan...ation. In simple terms, coral spawning is the reef reproducing. "I spent two weeks with a research team from the University of QLD many years ago we were on the barrier reef and this stuff was all around us," Mr Bazley said. "Coral polyps simultaneously release egg and sperm bundles that they've spent months growing into the ocean for external fertilisation." Professor Peter Harrison from the Marine Ecology Centre at Southern Cross University told ABC Sunshine Coast the coral spawning event takes place for a few nights after a full moon event in late spring, early summer. "It's one of the most spectacular wildlife events on earth," Prof Harrison said. "During these mass spawning events thousands of different colonies, many different species all spawn together in a few days." "Billions of larva are produced and some of them settle on the reef and start the reef regeneration process." Blueys Photography
