About the event

Richard was senior lecturer in Biology at Charles Darwin University for 26 years before moving to Brisbane in 2010. His main interests are avian breeding biology, foraging ecology and the flowering patterns of eucalypts. He has written and co-written three books and 120 peer reviewed journal articles. As President of Birds Queensland from 2012-2015, Richard co-founded the Learn About Birds project, teaching school children about birds and conservation in Karawatha Forest. After discovering several species of eucalypts that are rare or absent in the northern suburbs where he lives, Richard now conducts monthly surveys of flowering eucalypts, paperbarks and banksias in the forest. His interest in the area only grew after meeting and becoming friends with the forest’s saviour, Bernice Volz.

We will follow Richard along his regular transect starting at 7:30 AM at the Karawatha Discovery Centre, 149 Acacia Rd, Karawatha
