Greetings:  We still have seats on the bus for this tour around the Molonglo Valley to look for birds of prey.  A good opportunity to search for the (becoming rare) Little Eagle, Peregrine Falcon and Wedge-tailed Eagle etc, as well as learn about the proposed urban development in the Valley.  A variety of other birds should also be seen.  Cost for the bus will be in the range $17-20 pp depending on number.  A second bus will be hired if we have the numbers. There will be some walking so you need to be sure footed: the Woodstock Nature Reserve, at Shepherd's lookout near Holt (short loop down and back up) and near Uriarra Crossing (approx 4.5km along a fire trail - fairly easy with some ups and downs), plus other stops on the way. Need to bring lunch and drinks for the day, wet weather gear if rain is expected.  Finish at 4pm.   Full details in COG Newsletter Ganggang.
 
To book a seat, reply to this email.  I will confirm the exact meeting point later on: 8.30am at Coolemon Court Shopping Centre in Weston Creek - plenty of parking.
cheers
Jenny
