Hi everyone. You’ll have to excuse the dodgy iPhone photography.
One of our lovely resident Highfields Koala just chilling. Right in the heart of town.
He was about 1 tree in from O’Brien road just north of the new library.
A reminder to slow down and keep a look out on O’Brien road where they cross.
Am looking at the idea of koala crossing signs
Have also had three confirmed sightings of the Powerful Owl back for another year, all in Highfields.
Cr Tim.
Parks Week!I was at Highfields this morning doing some work with the Friends of the Escarpment Parks Toowoomba group in Charles & Motee Rogers Bushland reserve.
We had just finished a walkthrough when I thought I saw an ant nest, right up high in the gum tree- until it’s ear moved.
Excuse the dodgy iPhone photography but it was great to see one of our local Koala just chilling in this Bushland reserve right in the heart of Highfields.
A valuable reminder to watch for them crossing on O’Brien road, but great to see a happy, local koala.
There have also been 3 confirmed sightings of Powerful owls in Highfields this season which is exciting.
For a full list of everything available for parks week, from bird watching to yoga head to:
Happy koala spotting
