Would you like to learn how to build, install, monitor and maintain durable, pest-resistant nest boxes that cater for a suite of backyard wildlife? Join us at the July meeting of the Armadale Branch to find out how.

Simon Cherriman is an award-winning environmental scientist/ecologist, writer, educator and wildlife filmmaker and an enthusiastic advocate for the unique Australian bush and its creatures. He has been researching Wedge-tailed Eagle ecology in Western Australia for over 10 years.

Simon will talk about nesting-boxes and also his book ‘Hollowed Out?’ which is a culmination of more than two decades of study and photography of both natural and artificial tree-hollows. He will also have his book available for purchase at the end of the talk.
