Chisholm Vic: Nature Walk, Damper Creek Reserve June 2023

Enjoy a quiet relaxing walk in the bushland around Damper Creek Reserve in Mt Waverley with the Chisholm ACF community group, chat to others who care about our environment.  Learn more about our local plants and wildlife.

Damper Creek has 11 hectares of natural bush setting in the City of Monash. It is a regionally significant refuge for fauna providing high quality habitat. The restored vegetation represents some of the best examples of revegetation, and together with remnant vegetation, provides a diversity of micro-habitats.

Damper Creek provides abundant foraging, nesting and perching substrate for a variety of native wildlife. The age of the trees is generally young but there is an abundance of older hollow-bearing eucalypts and stags (dead trees) and provision of artificial nest boxes has provided nesting opportunities for hollow-dependent vertebrates.

We will meet near the playground which is accessed from Park St.   Family/significant others are most welcome.

After the walk we hope you will be able to join us for a cuppa and a chat.
