Hi everyone
THere will be a segment on the Channel 10 News tonight (Thu 30/10) or
tomorrow night about the dredging of Port Philip. It includes footage
filmed by an independent underwater film maker and I'm told it will
provide some evidence on how the dredging has affected this marine
environment.
It's an issue relevant to Birding-Aus because of the potential impact
on the St Kilda penguins. This is only a small colony for much of the
year, but it is joined in winter by adult birds from the huge Philip
Island colonies. Much of the dredging was carried out in winter.
It's also an issue for us all because of the importance of our marine
environments.
