Birds on Farms - Mysteries and Marvels of Mistletoe
2025-08-07 18:30 - 20:00 | Online, Provided on registration
Join us for an online session that explores the surprising role of mistletoe in Australian ecosystems. Often seen as a pest, mistletoe actually supports a wide range of wildlife and plays an important part in woodland health, especially for native birds.
The webinar features two expert speakers. Dr David Watson is an ecologist who has spent over 20 years studying mistletoe and its relationships with woodland species. His work has helped shift perceptions of mistletoe from an unwanted parasite to a key player in biodiversity. Kristy Peters leads the ‘Restoring Mistletoe on Wonnarua Country’ project, working with landholders to restore habitat for the critically endangered Regent Honeyeater. She is actively involved in reintroducing mistletoe to key habitats in the Hunter Valley, providing important food and shelter for woodland birds.
This free webinar is open to anyone interested in native plants, wildlife, and conservation, no matter where you live. It is especially relevant for landholders and bird enthusiasts.
Date: Thursday 7 August 2025
Time: 6:30 to 7:30 pm AEST, followed by 30 minutes for questions and discussion
Location: Online
To register for the online webinar go to: Microsoft Virtual Events Powered by Teams

An in-person mistletoe propagation workshop will follow in the Yass region on Saturday, 20 September. To participate in the workshop, you will need to attend the webinar or watch the recording beforehand.

To date, revegetation has been undertaken on numerous properties throughout the biolink zone in partnership with local primary and secondary schools, tertiary institutions, Scouts and Girl Guides Australia and the wider community.
We are reaching out to the community to help plant the last 500 plants for 2025.
What to bring: BYO hat, reusable water bottle, gloves, and weather appropriate clothes.
Landcare will supply all other tools and equipment for tree planting.
Where: 160 Main Creek Road, Main Ridge, 3928
When: Saturday 6th September 2025
