We were invited to apply for funding under the Federal Government Communities Environment Program by former Member for Eden Monaro, The Hon Mike Kelly. Our application for funds for native trees and shrubs to improve local bird habitat on the common was successful. We obtained a grant of almost $10,000. We will be targeting improvements for the glossy black cockatoo in particular with a large planting of casuarina trees on the lower floodplain beside Gillamatong Creek. We also hope to encourage small birds, like the scarlet robin, with a range of other trees and shrubs elsewhere.
