 After a sausage sizzle and a short talk we will explore the wetland and Irrawong Reserve for our native animals and play back the recorded animal calls at the waterfall. Last time we heard 6 species of frogs, saw clutches of baby ducks and Swamp Hens, the rare Powerful Owl and glowing purple fungus
