The Lower Vasse River and Vasse River Delta (where the river joins the wetlands) retain important ecological values and are important habitat for many native species, including waterbirds. These photos where taken this week during DWER's transect monitoring of the Vasse River, showing a selection of the waterbirds found in the area.For more information on the ecological values and management of the of the Lower Vasse River visit the Revitalising Geographe Waterways website rgw.dwer.wa.gov.au/geographe-waterways/lower-vasse-river/#revitalisinggeographewaterways #WAEstuaries ...

If you have been thinking of installing a catio and claiming the GeoCatch rebate, applications close TOMORROW (Friday 31st March 2023), so get in quickly. The pictures are from one of our rebate recipients who just finished their DIY installation in West Busselton.GeoCatch is offering a rebate for cat owners to install a new cat enclosure for their beloved feline. Eligible cat owners need to have the enclosure installed by 30th June 2023.The rebate aims to assist cat owners with keeping cats safe and healthy on their properties while having peace of mind in knowing where their cats are at all times. Cat owners will have the confidence to allow their cats outside access while still being mindful of urban wildlife, other pets and neighbours.The critically endangered western ringtail possum is of particular interest in the Geographe Bay Catchment, a species often found in backyards where it can conflict with free-access cats and dogs in urban areas. Cat enclosures are one option for responsible cat owners resulting in a win-win for all!For more information, visit www.geocatch.asn.au #criticallyendagered #criticallyendangeredspecies #westernringtail #westernringtailpossum #busseltonwa #petsawaypossumsplay ...

What is the Ringtail Tally?Now in it's 9th year, the ringtail tally enlists citizens to monitor possums in their backyard, local park, or school and contribute to the scientific study of western ringtail possums. The data you collect will be used to track population trends, future planning decisions, and conservation projects. Scientists like you are contributing valuable data to help further conserve this species into the future. What you will be doing in the tally:Step 1: Choose your survey site. This is a place where you have seen ringtails before; it may be your own garden, local park, or patch of bush. Step 2: Count the number of ringtails seen each evening at least twice a week over the four-week survey period (8th April – 9th May). Step 3: Return completed data sheets by May 31, 2023. To register, visit geocatch.asn.auThis project is delivered by GeoCatch, through funding from the Australian Government's National Landcare Program, in partnership with South West Catchments Council.@swccnrm #petsawaypossumsplay #ringtailtally #southwestcatchmentscouncil #westernringtail #westernringtailpossum #criticallyendangered #criticallyendangeredspecies #criticallyendagered ...
