What amazing weather and a fabulous turnout we had for our Build Your Own Possum Drey workshop held at Albany’s Historic Whaling Station as part of their school holiday program!
Eager participants had fun making their own possum dreys to install in their backyards, whilst learning all about the endangered Western Ringtail Possum and how they could help protect and conserve them.
Thanks to Torbay Catchment Group’s Executive Officer Peter Barnes, and Project Officer Christian Knapp who hosted the workshop.
We were joined by Laura Bird the Right Whale Tracker project coordinator from South Coast NRM, educating us on how to ID the mysterious Right Whales who visit our shore as well as Oyster Harbour Catchment Group’s Project Officer Cassie Dressler who was making DIY cat wand toys for our cat companions and raising awareness on how we can protect endangered native species, through responsible pet ownership.
This project received funding from the Australian Government Saving Native Species Program.
