Spring has well and truly sprung

THERE are lots of things to see in the Dawn Road Reserve at the moment and the best way to get to know about the range of interesting plants and wonderful wildlife is to join us next Sunday on an "interpretive bushwalk" with local naturalist John Bowden.

Organised through the Moreton Bay Regional Council's BushCare program, this unique, free, two-hour gentle walk will begin at 8am sharp at the south-eastern end of Fred Campbell Drive, Albany Creek, in the cul de sac.

Children are welcome, accompanied by an adult, and it's strongly advised that you wear closed shoes, a wide-brimmed hat, long sleeves, long pants, a sunscreen and a repellant. Bring along some drinking water, too, as the weather's already quite warm.

There are so many things to see and understand, that you might also want to bring along a camera. Feel free to contribute images to this blog afterwards.

By the way, with the warmer weather returning, you might want to review your bushfire preparedness as we head into peak danger season. If you're new to the area and not familiar with these preparations or want to be reminded of some of the essentials, check an earlier post on this blog.

Look forward to seeing you and your family on Sunday.
