Revisited the biobasin on Miles Platting Road, removed regrowth of glycine vine. The trees are looking happy and healthy. Will return as more vine in the lomandras.

I took my car in for a Service at Joy Motors in Underwood on Friday morning, so had some time to kill. Went to Springvale Park where I spent 45mins removing mostly Monkey Rope vine, with small amounts of passionfruit and Gylcine vine from Casurinas, two eucalypts and a Wattle. Lovely hearing an Eastern whipbird as I worked.

I was in Stones Corner to pick up a music book for my daughter. I remembered there is some great restoration of native trees along the creek. A big shout out to Buranda Bushcare! I counted three nest boxes. In the first photo look for the possum tail hanging out the hollow ❤️😊. I spent 30min picking up rubbish along the banks.

Nice evening for a walk around Kippa-Ring and Newport

Below the Hinze Dam wall is a lovely park with a huge fig and Hoop pines, called Mottee Court Park. Some passion fruit vine was established in one of the garden beds. Pulled out some 5 vines by the roots. We don’t need poisons!

Went for a lovely morning walk at Hinze dam. Some vine infestations. Removed some glycine vines from the lomandras at the lookout and about 10 seedling vines. Also saw the biggest bee I’ve ever seen! Size of a 50 cent piece. She’s called a Great Carpenter Bee, see the video below 😊🐝

I spent 30 minutes picking up rubbish this morning in my common car park area

Thought I’d enjoy the sunshine and do some exercise by going for a walk and pick up rubbish along the way. Sadly, such a variety of rubbish.

I revisited three casurina trees I had rescued from vines some 13 months earlier. Mile a minute and Balloon vine were again impacting their health. Vines cut and removed from all 3 trees.
