Wing Threads

Wing Threads is a creative flying quest that aims to foster stewardship of wetland ecosystems using STEM education, art and adventure.

🖐 Hi, my name's Milly Formby - otherwise known as Microlight Milly - and Wing Threads is my brainchild. I'm a pilot, zoologist and illustrator of the children's book, A Shorebird Flying Adventure (CSIRO Publishing, June 2022). I'm currently on a mission called Win

g Threads: Flight Around Oz to fly my microlight around Australia. This endeavour will bring free STEM incursions directly to Australian classrooms and connect urban, regional and remote primary school kids with their local wetlands by sharing the awesome-ness of migratory shorebirds! 🐦🛩

Wing Threads: Flight Around Oz is a not-for-profit, fully self-funded science communication initiative based on the Australian Curriculum. It was created in collaboration with BirdLife Australia to contribute to educational objectives in their Migratory Shorebird Conservation Action Plan. https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCDt3XOvAwPCsSjuOoEbFizg
