Would you like to help support the next round of Bird ID signs for the Steamer St path to be made? I have just received the quote for 10 more signs and it works out to $17.50 per sign. Previous donations and pledges cover 6 out of 10 of the next round.
If you would like to be a part of this fun project by contributing to the cost of the remaining 4 signs, please send us a direct message through Facebook or email us at : [email protected]

Since 1970, freshwater species populations have declined by 85% globally. 🚨

Faster than any other ecosystem.

In Australia, migratory fish like the Silver perch are among the most vulnerable. 🌡️

These fish rely on free-flowing rivers to migrate, feed and reproduce. But when rivers are blocked or degraded, those journeys become impossible.

Fish are the lifeblood of healthy rivers — supporting entire ecosystems and the wildlife that depends on them. 🧬

We work to restore river connectivity by supporting campaigns, advocating for healthy waterways, and delivering habitat restoration and fish hotels that help native fish recover.

Today is International World Fish Migration Day, a reminder that rivers are pathways for life, and when they flow freely, life can move with them.
