Wildlife Beyond the Riverbank: An Evening with Dinner & Discussion

Join Corowa District Landcare for an evening honouring the rich biodiversity of the Murray River region. Pull up a chair, enjoy a complimentary dinner and some good company.

This special event will feature expert guests and experiences that will showcase local wildlife and environments, including turtles (Dr James Van Dyke - La Trobe University/1 Million Turtles), birds (Darcy Creece - BirdLife Australia) and wetlands (Colleen O’Malley - NSW Biodiversity Conservation Trust).

The evening will offer opportunities to learn about our diverse species, conservation and how we can all play a role in enhancing and protecting the environment.

A Welcome to Country Ceremony will be led by Bangarang Traditional Owner, Uncle Dozer. 

Following the session, participants will have the option to join a short after dark walk along the river to look for nocturnal wildlife.
