waterbugblitz

Australians are encouraged to become ‘citizen scientists’ and investigate how healthy their local waterways are, by exploring and identifying waterbugs

Looking for a great short documentary to watch this week! Check out John Gooderham's new doco on waterbugs in 'Build Me A River' talking about habitats and some of Tasmania's coolest critters.

It’s World Water Day!
A nod to all our amazing waterways & people who care for them.
And our thoughts & love go to our friends who are experiencing flooding in NSW at the moment! Stay safe & take care of yourselves!
