South Western Snake-necked Turtle hatchlings are still emerging from nests around our wetlands. Last week, our Turtle Tracker team filmed this hatchling making its way to the water at Eric Singleton Wetlands.

Soon, adult nesting turtles will emerge, and they need our help.

Join our City of Bayswater Turtle Tracker team and be part of the Saving Our Snake-Necked Turtle project to protect our local turtle population:

Training sessions: September 12 or 13
Information session: September 3 — Citizen Science: Saving our Snake-necked Turtle

The second year of Treebate is now open!

This year, 10,000 Western Australian residents will be able to claim up to $150 for buying and planting up to five native trees (not just one like last year!). 🌳💰

All you need is a photo of the plant label you bought showing its name, and a tax invoice, and then claim your rebate through the ServiceWA App or via a paper form. 🤳✍️

Why plant more trees?! Trees provide: habitat and food for lots of little native creatures and our beautiful native birds, and shade to help cool our streets. 🌿🦇🐞🪶

Visit ‘Treebate’ for more info. Let’s get planting! 🌳😊

A huge thanks to Robyn from Waste Is My Resource for the incredible work done with the City of Bayswater to transform the way local households manage waste. It’s incredible to think of the ongoing and transformational benefits that have come from this wonderful program. Thanks 😊 to all who have participated and especially Robyn.

It was the end of an era today with me presenting the last of 8 years of the City of Bayswater Home Composting program, that involved over 1400 households recording their collected organic waste. A staggering 9 tonne of organic waste per month has been diverted from landfill by composting. It has been a privelege to show these people how easy it is for individuals to make difference to this planet by composting, preventing methane emissions and returning to the soil, microbes which in turn feed our plants. Thankyou to City of Bayswater Environment House / Perth Ecoshop & Sustainability Services and Binh Luong for inviting me.
