Park signage

Hard working members of Earthcare Park Landcare putting the finishing touches erecting signposts as part of a Local Land Services Community Education grant. Signs are displayed throughout our Bushfood garden showcasing plants that were used traditionally by local indigenous peoples for food and medicinal purposes.

Lorikeets in Love

The Rainbow Lorikeet is unmistakeable with it bright plumage as it forages on flowers, nectar and pollen; and occasionally on fruits and seeds. A mostly sedentary yet communal bird they mate for life and have begun breeding at Earthcare Park. Nests are in the hollow of eucalypts in a wide range of treed habitat. Lorikeet eggs are usually found in a clutch of 2, laid on chewed decayed wood and incubated by the female for about 23 days.
