Citizens for Refuge Ecology aims to utilize the power of citizen science to inform conservation activities on Private Nature Refuges throughout Queensland. Each year we run a series of four camps focusing on a diverse range of organisms including Plants, Mammals, Invertebrates, and Birds. Invert Adventure was a one night, 2 day invertebrate survey focused on learning about the diversity of insects, nematodes, spiders, and other invertebrates on this year's focal property, Dangerbridge Nature Refuge. We rotated through a set of guided activities led by QTFN and experts. There were over 742 observations of invertebrates with 248 species identified by 25 citizen (and expert) scientists. The data is available in iNAturalist - https://www.inaturalist.org/projects/dangerbridge-invert-adventure .

Spent 15mins removing glycine from the pathway near the kids

I had 15min to kill waiting for my friend to arrive for our afternoon catch-up and walk. Cut away the Balloon vine smothering a wattle, and removed Passionfruit vine from another 4 trees including the young brushbox in the centre of the second pic. Council contractors have poisoned along the paths, but many vines remain in the trees ☹️

Rainforest planting on a landslip. Selection of several native species, endemic to the region. Planted, staked, guarded, and mulched over a hundred seedling trees with the help of 3 friends.

Bush regeneration on a landslip.

Big weekend. I watered the 100+ trees we planted on Saturday. Handheld 8L watering can, up and down a 30m 45 degree slope 💪

Loaded up the car with 285 grasses, shrubs and trees for our weekend of planting near Dunoon!!! No room for Chris lol

Helped out our maintenance person with trimming shrubs back from the shopping centre entrance to make sure it’s safe for families! We turned these trimmed branches and clippings into mulch which was placed back on the gardens to help retain moisture during long spells with rain and helps with weed control!!

Weeded the gardens to help the plants thrive!

Vanish the vines from the rose garden this week...what a mission..
