Sticks Channel: At a recent meeting of the Peel Boating Community Group the Department of Transport undertook to hold a public forum on the Peel Aquatic Review this will include Sticks Channel
Certificate of Appreciation: On 16th November at a function held at the Port Bouvard Yacht Club the Canoe Trail Friends received a Certificate of Appreciation from the Peel Harvey Catchment Council for our involvement in the preparation of the “Peel- Yalgorup System Ramsar Management Plan”
Birds at Boodalan: Over the last six or so years most of us have watched the disappearance of Boodalan Island Nature Reserve, where Pelicans bred and She Oaks grew, to it’s present state as a sand bar. So you can imagine our surprise when on a club paddle about a week ago, Robert counted 2,000, yes two thousand Red Necked Stints there. These little migratory birds never cease to amaze, how about looking them up and check out the distance they travel to reach here
Shorebird Workshops: Want to become a qualified bird counter then this is for you. Two four day Shorebird Workshops in the Peel will be held on 12-15 December 2011 and 16-19 January 2012.
These two workshops are free and are a prelude to the National Shorebird count to be held on 5th February 2012. If interested please contact Thelma Crook e: thelma.crook@mandurah.wa.gov.au phone: 9550 3283
