The amazing diversity of our local woodland environment was on display for our field day near Cowra yesterday. In partnership with Young District Landcare, the field day was held at “Kooragindi”, a 100 acre bushland property in the Ilunie range. “Kooragindi” is under a conservation agreement with the Nature Conservation Trust and is protected in perpetuity. Owners John and Fiona, a photographer and artist respectively, kindly opened their property for over 30 people who were able to see and learn about a range of flowering orchids as well as other native plants and woodland birds. The weather was beautiful and the location was fantastic – a good day was had by all.
