18th September 2015
Spring is here and during the Friends of Roger's Reserve's working bee today at the reserve, there was plenty to see. Scaley-breasted Lorikeets were observed emerging from many tree hollows within the reserve (see below). Butterflies were out and about, including the Blue Triangle Butterfly and the Brown Ringlet (see below). Wildlflowers were emerging and there was some beautiful fungi on display. A medium sized Bearded Dragon was observed basking on the track around midday, looking a bit skinny, fresh from hibernation.
Spring is the perfect time of year to visit this beautiful patch of bushland within suburban Highfields and to appreciate what a gem this patch of remnant dry rainforest is.
