Restoring landscapes across the Mount Alexander Region

11 March 2016 – Local eucalypts talk

Posted on 9 March, 2016 by Connecting Country

The guest speaker at the March 2016 meeting of the Castlemaine Field Naturalists Club is Bernard Slattery.  His presentation is cheekily titled ‘Drab Green and Desolate Grey?  Learning to look at our eucalypts‘.

Bernard is a local resident and is actively involved with the Friends of the Box Ironbark Forests (FOBIF).  He is a co-author of the locally produced Mosses of Dry Forests of South-eastern Australia.  His new area of interest is the local eucalypt species, and he will talk about some of the things he has discovered and learnt over the past couple of years.  This talk matches nicely with the current photographic exhibition on trees being held at TOGS café in Castlemaine (CLICK HERE for details), and soon to be at the Newstead Arts Hub.

Details of Bernard’s talk:
When – Friday 11 March 2016, from 7.30pm
Where – The Fellowship Room, behind the Uniting Church on Lyttleton St, Castlemaine (next door to the Castlemaine Art Gallery and Museum)
Who – Members and visitors are all welcome.  All ages.  No cost for entry.
