Common Bronzewings are beautiful native pigeons that are under pressure in our area. You can help our local Bronzewings by improving their habitat in one of the places in Bayside they are most commonly seen.

Citywide and the Bayside Community Nursery support us, but we need your hands-on help to plant food for these uncommon birds.

Enter from George St near Wangara Rd. Look for the wire fence double gate on the west side of the former golf driving range.

Every spring about two million shorebirds from dozens of species make an epic migration from the far north of Asia and the Americas to Australia. Shorebirds or "waders" navigate halfway around the world using migratory routes including the East Asian-Australasian Flyway.

Come to our next Wild In Bayside talk and learn about these incredible creatures, their feats of endurance and navigation, the hazards they face, the work researchers are doing to understand them better, and how we can help in Port Phillip Bay and Bayside.

Our guest speaker is Tania Ireton. Tania is a longtime local resident and member of FoNW. She is President of Birdlife Bayside, active in surveying birds in our area and educating everyone about them. She is also one of Australia's top birders.

Free community event.
