The next Bird watching Walk arranged by Friends of Melville Bird Sanctuary will be on Thursday 14 July from 8.00am to approx 10.00am. Attendance is free. If you have time constraints, you may leave any time you wish during the Walk. We're pleased to say that our special guest leader for the Walk will be Viv Read. Viv has a long term interest in birds, their place in the landscape and their conservation. His career was focussed on the interface between agriculture and conservation with bird watching as a hobby. Post-career he took the lead role at Birdlife WA for 3 years, increasing the focus on bird conservation. He has remained on the Birdlife WA coordinating committee engaging in citizen science and being active in advocacy for bird conservation. Don't miss this opportunity!
