The Waterbugs of Gardiners Creek / KooyongKoot

Ever wondered what animals lurk below the waters of Gardiners Creek? Join Melbourne Water for a field day of exploring the underwater world of aquatic invertebrates and find out what they can tell us about the health of the waterways and landscapes they live in.

This is a chance to get some in-field experience of catching and identifying waterbugs, and helping the KooyongKoot Collaboration in working towards protecting and improving the health of Gardiners Creek.

This sampling day is free, but bookings are essential.

Please wear long pants, enclosed shoes and weather appropriate clothing
