Strathbogie Ranges – Nature View
- Caveat Forest – Greater Glider Night Walk
- Southern Greater Gliders in the wild – a community night-walk[Featured image by participant Sam Nicholson.] On Saturday 12th April, fourteen of us gathered to survey forest wildlife on part of Sue and Neville Debney’s Burgess Rd property, near Caveat in the western Strathbogie Ranges, Victoria. Of course, we were all keen to see and learn about all the wildlife that inhabits this forest, but […]

Some moths […]
- The Last Stand – next steps for Caveat’s Southern Greater GlidersThe western Strathbogie Ranges oce supported a large population of the Southern Greater Glider (Petauroides volans), perhaps tens of thousands strong, but 150 years of habitat clearing and forest degradation have left these forests without the vital large trees and hollows that the Southern Greater Glider and other species desperately need for daily shelter and […]
- The Last Stand – Southern Greater Glider in the Western Strathbogie RangesThe Strathbogie Ranges once supported about 100,000 ha of Southern Greater Glider (Petauroides volans) habitat, split roughly 50/50 between the western and eastern Strathbogie Ranges. This habitat occurred, and still occurs, above about 400 m asl and is comprised primarily of the Ecological Vegetation Class Herb-rich Foothill Forest (EVC 23), with smaller areas of Damp […]

Nothing could be further from the truth. The closer you look, the more you see and the mystery keeps unfolding! Over 10 years ago I started paying attention to something that was happening literally on my doorstep – […]
