We will have a native of the month from John Brown and a talk by Shaun Lee.

Cathy presented her findings at the Sanctuaries Conference of New Zealand last June and we're honored to have her share her work with us here. 

October's public talk has been cancelled as we are still at Covid Level 2.

Join us online via Zoom for our October monthly meeting. Bella Burgess of Pest Free Kaipatiki will be talking about her current projects including kaka nest boxes and bat roosting sites. John Brown will be presenting a surprise native.
