Spring has sprung at the Dam

I hope everyone is staying safe and keeping well during this lengthy lockdown. More than ever I think we are enjoying and appreciating how lucky we are to have this area of urban bushland on our doorstep.
There are so many plants in bloom at the moment at Manly Dam, from the beautiful little Happy Wanderer (hardenbergia violacea) and Dusky Coral Pea (Kennidia rubicunda - my first time seeing this flourishing this season very exciting!) to the big and bold Grevilleas - Buxifolia, Sericea and Speciosa to name a few.

Thank you to everyone in the area who are contributing with observations and to all those helping with ID’s. We’re up to 509 species of plants and animals and a cracking 1539 observations. Wow!

Enjoy all the bush has to offer us in these trying times; stick the paths, keep pups on a leash and keep on adding observations to the project.
