Tiffany Mason is a self-proclaimed 'bird nerd'. As an ecologist who loves nothing better than getting out into the bush and woodlands, she enjoys looking for and listening to birds, butterflies, and insects.

Her passion for nature has led her to a role with the Biodiversity Conservation Trust, where she works closely with landholders. Tiffany's talk will cover several key points:

  • Since 2017, the Biodiversity Conservation Trust (BCT) has been helping landholders protect native vegetation on their properties through conservation agreements.

  • Landholders play a valuable role in the National Reserve System, with 3% of protected land in NSW under private stewardship.

  • Discover the natural features, habitats, and fauna being protected in the Bathurst region and beyond, and learn how you can get involved in these conservation efforts.

Date: The fourth Thursday of each month

Venue: The Greens on William.

Start time: 5:30 pm for a 6pm talk, then a short Q&A session.

RSVP: Not required, but handy so that the venue knows how many people to expect. RSVP to greeningbathurst@gmail.com

Cost: There will be a $5 entry fee for people who are waged or otherwise able to pay.

The fee covers the cost of the venue and nibbles. For students or those who are less able to pay, a gold coin donation would be appreciated. PLEASE BRING CASH as we do not have an EFTPOS terminal (although the venue does and you can withdraw cash when you buy a drink from the bar). Drinks are pay as you go - available at the bar. There will also be a donations jar for anyone who feels like donating. All donated funds will be used towards travel and accomodation for future speakers.

60 Second Soap Box:

If there is something going on that upsets you, and you want to "name and shame", you can have 60 seconds to jump on the soapbox and proclaim it loud and clear (but please keep it respectful and otherwise appropriate)! Likewise if there is something really good, or an event that you want to publicise - feel free to let everyone know. Just remember - you
