Last Friday, we had the privilege of teaming up with Friends of Parks Queensland up at Mt Archer, setting 22 fauna monitors for the threatened Long-nosed Potoroo!

D'Aguilar is proving to be a great refuge for these little fellas, and work like this helps us track their numbers and identify pests in the area that threaten them.

In the coming weeks, we'll look to collect these cameras, so keep an eye out for event details!

Shout out to our buddies Friends of the Cedars working in the south west of the park! Andrew is passionate about conserving his local area and is launching this new group this Sunday for their first working bee! 🎉

They will hold their regular working bees on the last Saturday of each month so there won't be any conflict between our monthly meetings.

We had an amazing morning out in the park on Saturday with Wildlife Queensland working to conserve the threatened Brush-tailed Rock Wallabies at Mt Archer 🦘

We made great progress clearing Lantana, freeing up the Rock Wallabies' foraging area near the rocky cliffs. We didn't spot any Wallabies on the drone, but we're sure they'll be happy to have their grass back!

We are back this Saturday, the 8th August, working up at the northern end of the park near Mt Archer! We are excited to be partnering again with Wildlife Queensland as part of their work protecting the threatened brush-tailed rock wallabies that live in D'Aguilar NP! 🦘

We will be ​working a kilometre or so up from the Broadwater day-use area, along the ridgeline from 8am - 11:30pm - weeding an area where the rock wallabies forage.

The road is 2WD accessible to the Broadwater day-use area (including sections of dirt road), beyond that the road becomes rougher and steeper (4WD recommended). Let me know if you need a shuttle up to the work area.

See map attached for work area and access.

Wildflowers in D'Aguilar National Park!

Banksias are flowering at this time of year! Often known for their coastal varieties, there are several subspecies found in different environments, including the montane heathland found within the park!

Both Banksia Spinulosa (subsp. Collina) and Banksia Integrifolia (subsp. Monticola) are flowing profusely at the moment.

Take a drive from The Gantry (Mt Mee) along the Western Escarpment Drive to see the beautiful Scribbly-gum forest and heath understory. There is always something flowering!
