Sugar Gliders using Nesting Box at Rogers Reserve Highfields

Today at the Rogers Reserve Working Bee at Highfields, Brendon brought the extension ladder and conducted a check on the only nesting box that we have installed. It has been in place for a few years now and we haven't checked it for about 2 years.
He carefully lifted the lid a small amount and put the phone inside to take a couple of photos and a little video to check the contents. To our delight there was a family of Sugar Gliders living inside in their beautiful leaf nest they have created. We couldn't be happier that it is being used for the species that it was designed for.
Sugar and Squirrel Gliders live in the Rogers Reserve and feed on the wattles, insects, flowers and sap.
This is a wonderful example of what you can do at your own property to provide artificial habitat for important wildlife. Video to come on our Facebook Page. www.facebook.com/rogersreserve
