FreeHabitat Restoration Fund Open Day
Date: 12 Feb 2022
Time: 10am
A Conservations delight of bushland on 40 acres of private land, Shands Rd Red Hill, will be open to the public for guided tours on the 12 February 2022 at 10am.
This tract of bush has required woody weed removal over 4years but is otherwise pristine forest which is part of a larger 100 acre forest providing significant flora and fauna diversity.
The Powerful Owl and masked owl, who are our champion raptors against the use of second Generation Rodenticides(SGARs) on the Mornington Peninsula, are residents on this incredible bush tract along with many other significant species. For geologists there is a Bluestone intrusion one of the rare accessible bluestone sites on the Peninsula.
In short, this is an ‘awesome’ opportunity to experience the best forest the Mornington Peninsula offers.
