Friends of Grasslands (FOG)
is about to undertake a project to monitor populations of the threatened Golden
Sun Moth in the Canberra region. We are looking for volunteers to
help with the monitoring. A workshop to learn what is involved in the
monitoring has been organised for Saturday 1 November from 10: to 3:00 pm, at
the University of Canberra. Further details are given on the
accompanying pdf.
If anyone is interested in
helping out, please contact me or better still one of the organisers - Sarah
Hnatiuk (her details are on the pdf).
We may organise another
workshop for those who cannot make the one on 1 November.
Even if you want to help
but not to go to the workshop please contact us - we have at around 2 dozen
sites, which each require 4 visits and there are up to a dozen plots on each
site, so there is plenty to be done.
You will also learn
something about one of our endangered species at both the local and national
level and also about the grassland habitats that they live on.
So give it a
go.
