Other Publications

From 1977 to 1990 the former City of Sandringham published a series of eight booklets on Bayside's natural environment.

They are still the best introduction to our geology, bushlands, and plants. You can download them from http://bcs.asn.au/sand_env.htm

The Bayside Libraries have a range of more recent publications covering Bayside's birds, marine life, plants, and coast.
