Michael,
Congratulation on your appointment. I have just returned from a couple of
weeks R&R at Tuross Head and while down there I was invited by a long time
friend who has retired to Tuross to attended an information evening in
Narooma NPWS office, the host being Mark Westwood.
I found the evening to be very informative and as a result I signed up as a
warden to assist with his Shorebird Recovery program. Eight of us spent
time at South Tuross estuary (Eurobodalla National Park) on 23/11 sighting,
marking and fencing Little Tern scrapes and nests.
I must admit it is one of the very satisfying things that I have done since
becoming a birdo about 18 months ago, especially being the first to find two
nests, each with an egg. I am hoping that I can also use the knowledge
gained to make contact with those reponsible for a similar program at Towra
Point in Kurnell and perhaps 'swap notes'.
I wholeheartedly encourage everyone to find out more about this great
initiative.
