  • Connecting with our history.
    ‘Acknowledgement of Traditional Land Owners’ ‘In keeping with the spirit of Reconciliation, we acknowledge the traditional custodians of the land on which we are meeting today. We recognise indigenous people, their elders – past and present.’ I believe these are important words. This fine stone tool is another reminder that European culture is a very […]
  • There’s a tale to this tail!
    This tale has two characters; one, Australia’s largest owl, the Powerful Owl (Ninox strenua); the other, a cute little Sugar, or Kreffts’ Glider (Petaurus notatus, formerly P. breviceps).

Mt Tenneriffe is a prominent granitic outcrop on the western escarpment of the Strathbogie Ranges, just a stone’s throw from the Hume Fwy, between the townships of Locksley and Longwood. […]
  • Squirrels on the doorstep
    A silhouette flashing through the canopy above, a slap on a nearby tree trunk – that’s how Donna and Charlie from Hurley St, Longwood first realized they had gliders living in the trees around their home. And they didn’t just see these nocturnal visitors once; it became a semi-regular occurrence, especially when some garden trees, […]
