Botanic Gardens - total fire ban closure

["martin butterfield" <>]

I presume that this reduction of service will be matched by an equivalent decrease in the fee for parking?

Hi all

 

Went for an early am wander in the Botanic Gardens, hoping to find a drongo, which I didn't. My wanderings were cut short when I was firmly though amiably ejected by a staff member, who told me that as of yesterday most of the gardens will be closed on days of total fire ban. The info centre and bottom part of the gardens will still be open, but not anywhere else. I must have got there before the closed signs were put up.

 

Couldn't find any sign of a drongo during my brief search, but did see a Peaceful Dove in a tree near the research lab north of the rainforest gully. A Koel was calling from somewhere on the other side of Clunies Ross St.

 

cheers

 

Steve
