Can’t you access Kama from Whitlam yet?

Exciting to have an owlet nightjar visit your nest box.

I've sought clarification from Jo Clay about the Kama closure as there were no signs to indicate its imminent closure and ACT Parks and Conservation had recently advertised a walk in Kama.  It's very disappointing as three years is a long time to wait to get back in there when you're my age.

Hi all,

I guess it shouldn't be a surprise, but first time I've seen an Owlet nightjar in a nest box, last week somewhere around Canberra.

I guess it also shouldn't be a surprise, that the carpark to Kama is now closed due to the duplication of William Hovell Reserve. I wonder if the Brown Treecreeper will still be around after all is completed.

Christine.
