WEEKEND EXCURSION
The Club had a weekend excursion to Narembeen on 20th/21st April. On the Saturday afternoon members viewed the historic areas of the town and an evening meal at the Narembeen Club. After dinner eleven members drove to the Wadderin Wildlife Sanctuary where they boarded an electric bus for a night tour of the Sanctuary.
They were treated with a number of sightings of the Critically Endangered Woylie (Bettongia pencillata), the Endangered Southern Brown Bandicoot, Common Brushtail Possum (Trichosurus vulpecula) and a Tawny Frogmouth (Podargus strigoides).
The next excursion will be to the Myalup wetlands on 19th/20th July with Mike Griffiths.
