🦜🦅🦆

Each day this week spend 20 minutes outside counting all the birds you can see. This could be anywhere from your backyard, to the park down the street, or somewhere out in nature.

Log your sightings on the Aussie Bird Count app as you go, and voila, you're done! You've just helped scientists contribute to a better understanding of Australia's birdlife.

Thank you to all who took the time to attend the Hawkesbury Nepean Wetlands Forum 2026. This turned out to be a wonderfully educational, networking event for those who attended, we heard from many different speakers and from a school involved in the Schools Wetlands Challenge:

- Ricki Nash Land for Wildlife from Cattai Hills Environment Network CHEN
- Rodney Molesworth Blundell’s Swamp Wildlife Refuge
- Mark Fuller on Riverstone wetlands Cumberland Conservation Network
- Briony Lewis on litter prevention in wetlands Hawkesbury City Council
- Veeraj Sharma on Broadwater Wetlands from Cattai Hills Environment Network CHEN
- Lorien Novalis on Dooral Dooral Creek Lorien Novalis School

If you were unable to attend and want to learn more, volunteer, protect or support your local wetland please reach out to some of the people or pages tagged in this post. Sadly, our wetlands and all who inhabit them are under threat by many factors including rapid urban growth, industrial encroachment, human interaction (pollution, clearing, ect) climate shifts, disease such as bird flu, and more.

Thank you to all those who supported this event.
