  • Paluma Nature Notes Contributions to the PDCA Newsletter, Turkey Talk, 2011-2018
    Paluma Nature Notes Contributions to the PDCA Newsletter, Turkey Talk, 2011-2018 by Roy MacKay Compiled by Jamie Oliver Roy Mackay – Nature Notes Compilation Introduction Roy Mackay first moved to Paluma in 1987 having had a varied and successful career in Australia and PNG working as taxidermist, curator wildlife park director, photographer and book author. He was a highly skilled naturalist, with a keen interest in all plants and animals (especially in the tropics). Through his regular walks in and around Paluma and avid reading of the literature, Roy quickly became Paluma’s resident expert on the wildlife and natural history of the area. With the establishment of Paluma’s regular newsletter, Turkey Talk, Roy found an effective way to share this wealth of knowledge. His first contributions, starting with issue 28, dealt with short notes related to natural history (eg. announcements of new species lists, book reviews etc.) but by Issue 39, with an article entitled “Nature Notes” he concentrated on recording new and interesting observations from Paluma and nearby areas. With the exception of a series of 4 articles titled “Roy's Rovings” (under a different Turkey Talk editor), and the occasional missed article due to absence or ill health, and one article named “Paluma in the Clouds” Roy’s contributions were simply labelled “Nature Notes” and they became a much-read part of virtually all issues of Turkey Talk from number 45 onwards. In total he wrote 78 articles. All of these are reproduced below. Jamie Oliver December, 2019 Page 2 Contents Each Nature Notes article has been extracted from an issue of the newsletter of the Paluma & District Community Association (Turkey Talk – abbreviated at TT throughout).

Warrego River Scoping Study – Summary 1.1. Project Rationale and Objectives The Queensland portion of the Warrego is managed under the Warrego, Paroo, Bulloo and Nebine Water Resource Plan (WRP) (2003) and the Resource Operation Plan (ROP) (2006). At present, there is no planning instrument in NSW. As such, there was concern in the community that available information be consolidated and assessed for usability for the purposes of supporting development of a plan in NSW and for future reviews of the QLD plan. There was also concern that an assessment be undertaken of current hydrologic impacts due to water resource development and potential future impacts. As a result, the Western Catchment Management Authority (WCMA) commissioned WMAwater to undertake a scoping study for the Warrego River and its tributaries and effluents. This study was to synthesise and identify gaps in knowledge / data relating to hydrology, flow dependent environmental assets and water planning instruments.

Maiy de JaJoim (J ABSTRACT This thesis is about primary schooling in tiie region of north Queensland between 1875 and 1905. Specifically, it examines teaching and learning as an intCTactive process between the participants in the educational enterprise and tiieir particular environments. Guiding the study are ethnogr^hic and narrative ^^proaches which take account of human agency, especially tiie capacity of the northem communities, including teachers, pupils and officials, to interconnect the diversity of their social and economic landscapes with the formal requirements of secular schooling. In the period from 1875 to 1905, primary schooling expanded in numerical terms but was provided unevenly across the colony at both the system and community levels. Disruption was part of the estabUshing process, but the location was as much with families, communities and teachers as with the newly-formed Department of Pubhc Instruction. Where schooling took place was important.
