Up to 20 visitors are able to visit another household, and public gatherings of up to 20 people are now al- lowed. These numbers this includes sport training, but physical distancing must be maintained at all times (e.g all sport training must be non-contact). From Wednesday 1 July kids sport and community sport will be allowed to resume. The number of people allowed inside indoor venues will be determined by the one person per 4 square metre rule. As the community will be aware, outdoor gyms, playgrounds, dog off-leash areas and skate parks can all now also be used. This applies across the region to all of these facilities. From 1st of June Council reopened the Goulburn Mulwaree Library, Goulburn Regional Art Gal- lery, Rocky Hill War Memorial Museum, the Visitor Information Centre and the Goulburn Historic Waterworks Museum. Each facility has strict new protocols in place, and guest numbers limited to allow for 4 square metres per person. NSW Health is clearly stating that the responsibility is on individuals to maintain distancing and hygiene practices. Please wash your hands before and after using equipment and assume the person who used equipment before you has the virus. The community is also encouraged to use their own disinfectant wipes prior to and after use of public equipment. Furthermore, please do not visit any Council facilities if you are feeling unwell.

You really can't miss them. They announce their presence with such a distinctive loud, high pitched, wailing call and when you look up to see the source of the sound you'll usually see a number (often 10 or more) of the large black birds, flying in a very leisurely manner overhead. They flap their wings so slowly, like they've got all the time in the world to get where they're going. Or if you haven't seen them you might have noticed some of their handiwork on the trunk of a gum tree. They can sense the wood-boring grubs just under the bark and their extremely strong beaks are perfect for gouging out the juicy treat. Never mind that they sometimes destroy the tree in their efforts to get to it. But there is another black cockatoo which passes much more quietly through Windellama, so quietly that you might have missed it. Its the Glossy Black Cockatoo. Its quite similar to the Yellow Tailed Black, but smaller, and instead of a yellow tail panel the Glossy has a striking red or orange- red tail panel and some yellow patches or spots on the head and neck. They commonly feed in (very quietly) in groups of 3, or in small or large groups, and their diet is almost exclusively Allocasuarina (She Oak) nuts. The adults mate for life and raise the young in nests made in the hollows of old Eucalyptus trees. These hollows take over 100 years to form. Unfortunately the Glossy Blacks aren't doing so well these days. Ongoing land clearing means the number of large hollow-bearing trees is diminishing, as are the stands of their favourite food, Allocasuarinas. They really need our help if they are to survive. Greening Australia is encouraging landholders to get on board their Glossy Black Cockatoo Habitat Restoration program. So far 46 hill top and ridge sites across the southern tablelands have been earmarked for planting 15000 Greening Australia supplied tube stock, mainly Allocauarinas, but also other woodland species like Eucalyptus and wattles. It's hoped that this program will ensure there's food for Glossys in our area in decades to come. It will also benefit other threatened woodland birds like the Hooded, Scarlet and Flame Robins, Diamond Firetail and Brown Treeceeper too. At least 4 Windellama property owners have joined the program. If you'd like to help our Glossy Black Cockatoos too, by planting trees on 1/2-1 hectares on your property, please contact Lucy Wenger at Greening Australia: 0409 030 059 [email protected] For more info: FUTURE LANDCARE EVENTS With the current (and continuing) uncertain position about the coronavirus and community meetings, Windellama Landcare has decided to defer our next workshop to Saturday 15 August. The workshop will provide an opportunity for participants to provide their input to future workshops in the series. We will keep you posted if there are any more changes – let’s hope we’re all back on track soon. Stay well. www.greeningaustralia.org.au/projects/glossy-black-cockatoo Page 7 www.windellama.com.au Windellama News - July 2020 NERRIGA HOTEL Pub opens at 10am, 7 days.
