Landcare news
In February some of our Landcare members tagged along with the Cowra Woodlands Bird Group as they did their Summer Surveys for this year. The Cowra Group has been going for 15 years and record at 85 sites around the Cowra area! They survey on both public and private land and in many different types of country. The volunteers come from all over the place – Sydney, Canberra and further afield and join the locals in Cowra for the weekend. Small teams are allocated 3 or 4 sites to be surveyed each day. They are so good at it! Mostly they identify birds by their calls. Julie, who I went with, just listens and says “Oh…a striated pardalote…no, two…no,three.”! Then patiently tries to point them out to me while I struggle to focus the binoculars! It was a learning experience and congratulations to Jo who did both days! Bird Surveys are a great way to evaluate the health of an area. Kangarooby Landcare will choose some sites around Gooloogong as one way to monitor the revegetation projects as they develop. The plantings at the Gooloogong Country Club will be one place. If anyone else is interested in having surveys done please get in touch. Thank you to Vera and Les Reid for hosting last month’s meeting. Thank you for the lovely walk along your part of the river and back past the gorgeous black faced lambs. The meeting finished just as the rain poured down, though it all dried up again very quickly with nothing much to show for it. Great to have a couple of new Landcare members come along to the meeting. Welcome to Rebecca and to Stuart and hope you enjoy getting involved. An Expression of Interest form has been sent out to members about Direct Seeding projects this autumn. Please have a think about it and get back to Tracee. Next meeting will be 8th April just after Easter. For more information ring Tracee on 63448207 or Ruth on 63448256. Photos Double-barred Finches. Their call is like a short electric buzz!

MEET ME IN YOUR TOWN ON Friday 10 April 2015
As the Federal Member for Hume I am keen to meet with and talk to as many people as I can across the electorate. I would like to hear what issues are important to you and see if I can solve any problems of a Federal nature, such as telecommunications, social security and trade.
On Friday 10 April 2015 I will be visiting GOOLOOGONG at approx. 10.30am at the Park on Main Street Gooloogong.
This is an opportunity for me to meet you, listen to your concerns and hear what you think is important for the future of your community.
Alternatively, if you would like to contact me, you can always ring me on 1300 301 826, or email me at [email protected]
I look forward to meeting you.
