Our Senior Research Fellow Dr Kate Brandis (2nd from left) and PostDoc researcher Roxane Francis (centre) had the pleasure of meeting @CEWH Dr Simon Banks (2nd from right) and showcasing our #waterbird monitoring on the ground at #NarranLakes last week @unswbees @UNSWScience
It was so great to visit the beautiful Narran Lakes (Dharriwaa) last week and observe the flourishing bird life! 🌱🐣
To help maintain #Waterbird breeding conditions, water is currently flowing through the internationally important wetlands.
