The creamy-white Marri blossom that can sometimes cover the Perth Hills' forest in a snow-like blanket is a signal the Noongar season of Bunuru, sometimes known as the 'second summer', has begun. This time of year is characterised by long, hot days and warm evenings, but a myriad of wildlife species can be observed and appreciated.

Join local wildlife ecologist Simon Cherriman for this environmental education session to learn about what wildlife species, especially mammals, birds and insects, are up to during the Bunuru season. There will be time for Q&A.

Bookings are essential for this free event via Eventbrite. Light refreshments will be available. You are encouraged to bring your own keep cup for tea/coffee or water.

Please let us know if you have any access requirements.
