Join us for the Birds of the Night event, where you'll have the chance to meet local nocturnal birds and learn about the other fascinating wildlife that calls Piney Lakes Reserve home. After a fun and informative session, we'll head out on a night walk to experience the natural wonders of the evening.

This event is for young adults aged 18 - 25 years. An additional all-ages, family friendly Birds of the Night event is running on the 14th of March.

Enclosed shoes, long pants and long sleeves recommended (protect yourself from those pesky mosquitos and prickly plants).

PLEASE BRING - a torch and insect repellent

This event is offered as a response to the City of Melville's Directions from Young People Youth Strategy which identified that our local young people feel concern over environmental issues but are unsure how to take action and that they would like to see more events targeted to their age group.
