25.01.2022 Work day scheduled for tomorrow Who’s with us!?
24.01.2022 Attention!!! Tomorrow’s event is cancelled due to the site manager being unwell. Please help spread the word. Thanks to all who planned to attend. We will soon post the next workday. There is still plenty of work to be completed before the end of the year
23.01.2022 Fantastic turn out at our nursery workday today! Thank you all that volunteered These workdays are essential to prepare our seedlings for the planting season at Yellagonga Many natives we plant are not as easily accessible like a quick trip to the local Bunnings. We have to grow most of our plants from seeds as many natives are not for sale.
21.01.2022 Nursery give away. 400 Melaleuca rhaphiophylla 400 Regelia ciliata 5 trays Juncus craussii Message me. Landcare groups preferred.

19.01.2022 Live action from Yellagonga... bandicoot jujitsu When two male bandicoots meet, they sometimes fight. This involves standing on the hind legs and clawing at each other's shoulders and backs, often twining around each other and then throwing the opponent over the shoulder. Sometimes these fights are totally silent; at other times the males snort and bark. The fighting males are single-minded in their determination to win, and humans can approach the scene of the battle very closely, often within a few feet before the combatants are aware of the observers. However please keep your distance and allow the bandicoots to do their thing.
18.01.2022 We are calling all citizen scientists There have been numerous reports of bird deaths within Yellagonga Regional Park We would love to find out the cause, which requires evidence!... If you see a dead bird or a sick bird, please take a photograph, record exact location and date/time. However, please DO NOT TOUCH a dead bird (or any other dead animal you may find) and if you see a sick animal, please call the Wildcare Helpline on (08) 9474 9055. Again, if the animal is sick, please do not touch it. Leave the information of the animal's whereabouts with wildlife experts. Please send your images and information to [email protected] Image by Gary Tate

14.01.2022 Join David Pike’s curated walk on Saturday 5th September through 2019 prescribed burnt Landsdale Conservation Park. 8:00am to 10:00am. Meet 100m east of Evandale Road, Darch. Your journey to see this bushland will be made more worthwhile by having the opportunity to buy native plants at the nursery afterwards.... David has been walking through and observing Landsdale bushland for 20 years. This remnant lies in suburban Darch. It’s biodiversity and rarity is a reminder that we need to protect it. Can we afford to jeopardise this by burning it and what about the effect of fire access tracks? David will talk about the fire history and its effect. What animals were lost after the 2011 fire? Should they be brought back? How has the vegetation changed post fires? What are the biggest threats to this bushland today? Who makes the decision for a prescribed burn? What records are kept of any fires in our suburban bushland? Are they reviewed? Get David’s thoughts on arson control at this bushland. Bring some morning tea and share your ideas with others afterward! There are over 200 bushcare groups in Perth who work tirelessly to conserving biodiversity. We have the best research scientists who are gathering the evidence for bushland management. Let’s get this right, listen to the science, listen to the volunteers who observe the bushland, year after year! See you there! Further details of the walk are on the Urban Bushland Council website at:https://www.bushlandperth.org.au//walk-in-landsdale-conse/
13.01.2022 Bring on Monday like a kookaburra takes on a tiger snake Fearless...
13.01.2022 Friends of Yellagonga former Chair, Kevin McLeod was rather surprised when he was lured to the floating islands site at Lake Goollelal yesterday under false pretences to find himself unveiling a sign acknowledging his innovative work on this project. Some of his support team were there to witness this event! Huge thanks too must go to Wayne Childs (Dept of Biodiversity, Conservation & Attractions - Regional Parks Manager) and Jessica Stojkovski MLA (for organising a large grant for this project on behalf of the Environment Minister Stephen Dawson MLA)
10.01.2022 Tomorrow morning!
10.01.2022 Our favourite day of the week! Happy Wrens-day Everyone
10.01.2022 Have you ever spotted a Carnaby’s Black Cockatoo? A much-loved Western Australian icon, these impressive birds can be rather conspicuous, sometimes congregating... into large flocks. As part of the Environment Restoration Fund, the Australian Government has announced $3 million in funding to help in the recovery of this threatened bird. The funding will be delivered by five natural resource management organisations: NACC, Peel-Harvey Catchment Council, Wheatbelt Natural Resource Management Inc, South West Catchments Council (SWCC), and South Coast Natural Resource Management Inc., in partnership and with the support of BirdLife Australia. This project will focus on finding and protecting breeding sites and restoring breeding habitat. The decline in Carnaby’s has been primarily due to the loss and fragmentation of habitat. Carnaby’s also require nesting hollows from large trees that are up to 200 years of age. The project will work with landholders to install nesting boxes in important breeding areas and help in the raising of Black Cockatoo fledglings in time for the main breeding season.

10.01.2022 The youngsters may not even know it, but any older person remembers very well that up to about 20 years ago any car trip meant a windshield covered in insects c...rushed by impact. Today, that doesn't happen the same way anymore. It may look great to travel with a clean windshield. But doesn't that tell you anything? Where did the bugs go anyway? Scientists associate the dramatic decline of insect populations with agribusiness due to the destruction of natural habitats and pesticide application. The decline of insects, besides being a tragedy in itself, affects all earthly ecosystems, such as the diet of birds, reptiles and amphibians, and pollination of plants, etc. The collapse of insect populations may be the foreshadowing of earthly ecosystems collapse.
07.01.2022 Committee members, John and Heather Chester, attended this group to talk about FOY's activities and FOY's history. A delightful bunch of people - thanks for having us, Little Possums !
