What did we get done?

What did we find?

- Additional 5 boxes with fresh leaves (glider nests)
- One box knocked down by a fallen tree (since repaired)
- Most of the other boxes with small scats (poo) 1 with a bat
- People cutting a lot of firewood for removal
Attendance:

- 15 people were first timers, 21 were previous helpers
- Over 70 people have participated at the Lake Hume Glider project


Feedback on our nestbox monitoring and tree planting afternoon has been that it was a great day and very successful. The fire, homemade pumpkin soup, damper and cupcakes went down very well. Thanks again to all the helpers.
