Get Involved The Link The Link IssueVolunteer 84 Newsletter Issue 70 VOLUNTEERS AND PARTNERSHIPS UNIT NEWS WELCOME DANIELLE CALABRO G’day My name is Danielle Calabro and I am the current graduate ranger working in the Volunteers and Partnerships Unit. I am in my first year of the graduate program and just shy of completing two placements. Once I have completed the Adelaide placement, the graduate program takes me to Northern and Yorke and SAAL regions, where I can’t wait to gain more experience working in the parks, meet new rangers, and work with volunteer groups. My first six month placement was at Naracoorte Caves National Park where I was lucky to be involved with the international student volunteers program. I got to know a fantastic and enthusiastic group of young American students and some of the work we undertook included weed eradication; a Mallee fowl mound survey; planting native pigface on sand dunes in Canunda National Park; and tree planting at Naracoorte Caves National Park. I also had the pleasure of supervising school work experience students where they gained experience in a fox baiting program, revegetation work at Bool Lagoon Game Reserve, and asset maintenance. I have been a volunteer in organisations from wildlife parks to museums, where I gained invaluable experience and met wonderful people who were happy to share their experience and knowledge. I think that volunteering is such an important part of our society. It enables people to pursue their interests, make a difference, form life-long friendships and share knowledge. I love how people from all walks of life get together because they share a common interest. I think the passion and hard work that volunteers have for our parks is vital to long term nature conservation, and I look forward to being a part of this as I continue on my journey as a budding park ranger.

Butterfly Conservation South Australia is producing a book on ‘Common moths of the Adelaide Region’ to replace the now out of print book by Peter McQuillan, published by the SA Museum in 1982. The new book will be a companion to the ‘Attracting butterflies to your garden’ book. BCSA has been fortunate to receive a seeding grant from the AMLNRM and a small team are working with author Peter McQuillan on content for the new book. They have chosen around 120 common moths and would like to include images of not only the adults but their caterpillars as well. This is where they need help… they are seeking high quality images of local moths and caterpillars for possible inclusion in their book. The photographer of all images used in the book will be acknowledged and photographers should be willing to sign a release

  • South Australia's National Parks Guide
    SOUTH AUSTRALIA’S NATIONAL PARKS GUIDE Explore some of South Australia’s most inspirational places INTRODUCTION Generations of South Australians and visitors to our State cherish memories of our national parks. From camping with family and friends in the iconic Flinders Ranges, picnicking at popular Adelaide parks such as Belair National Park or fishing and swimming along our long and winding coast, there are countless opportunities to connect with nature and discover landscapes of both natural and cultural significance. South Australia’s parks make an important contribution to the economic development of the State through nature- based tourism, recreation and biodiversity. They also contribute to the healthy lifestyles we as a community enjoy and they are cornerstones of our efforts to conserve South Australia’s native plants and animals. In recognition of the importance of our parks, the Department of Environment, Water and Natural Resources is enhancing experiences for visitors, such as improving park infrastructure and providing opportunities for volunteers to contribute to conservation efforts. It is important that we all continue to celebrate South Australia’s parks and recognise the contribution that people make to conservation. Helping achieve that vision is the fun part – all you need to do is visit a park and take advantage of all it has to offer.

    The Link Volunteer Newsletter Issue 76 VOLUNTEER SUPPORT UNIT VSU WELCOMES JOHN ADAMS Hi My name is John Adams and I am currently working in the Volunteer Support Unit at Keswick. I am a graduate ranger and am currently nine months into my two year rotational placement. My first placement had me based in Mount Gambier, were I worked on various projects from the Grassy Woodland rehabilitation at Sand Cave, to restoring habitat for the Red-tailed Black Cockatoo. During these projects I worked with numerous volunteers groups, from international volunteers to local Friends of Parks groups. From these experiences I quickly understood the vast amount of work that volunteers undertake in our Parks and surrounds, and how important they are in conservation works. I grew up in Adelaide, and from an early age loved the coastal environment, and was often at the beach either swimming, snorkelling or admiring the unique coastal vegetation. Since then, I completed my degree in Environmental Policy and Management at Adelaide University. From there I have worked at State Flora Nursery and a revegetation consultancy, where I was actively involved in plant propagation and bushland restoration works. During these jobs I developed a keen interest in the unique vegetation of South Australia, and enjoyed discovering rare plants. I enjoy the outdoors and like going camping, and bushwalking through the many trails around the Adelaide Hills and when I’m not outside you will usually find me watching movies. Working as a graduate ranger has allowed me to work in some of the most rugged, beautiful and threatened environments in SA, and I am passionate about preserving these habitats for future generations to enjoy.

Aiming to bring some light-hearted banter and joy to you all during these challenging COVID- 19 times. Winter has settled in and it seems COVID-19 is going to stick around for a while too. Our team would just like to take a moment and thank our volunteers for their cooperation in continuing to take appropriate safety measures to keep our community as safe as possible- we know it’s been difficult! It’s also really important that we continue to apply these safety measures, especially as we start to socialise again and get back to our activities. So please ensure you get tested if you have symptoms (even if mild), practise good hygiene, download the COVIDSafe app, and keep 1.5 metres distance from others wherever, whenever possible. Whale watching, fungi, orchids, school holidays, rain and of course flowing waterfalls are just a few things that Winter brings. In this edition, learn about our gentle giants of the sea, the various types of fungi you might see in our parks, tips to avoid a wildlife strike in your travels and much more… By the way, we’re loving all the photos coming in and seeing all the interesting things you’re finding! Please continue to share your photos or #Hashtag us on Facebook, so we can promote and share your amazing work - Gill, Ian, Amanda, Amy, Carly, Pam and Edi.
