Liz put a lot of effort into publicity for Foothills, setting up and maintaining our Facebook page, and Dry Weather Gardening getting our name out there on social media by publishing interesting posts and increasing our Kerry Davis profile further by also running a couple of photo competitions.

Thaddeus Zagorski University of Tasmania Date: ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS This thesis is not merely the achievement of a personal goal, but a culmination of a journey that started many, many years ago. As culmination it is also an impetus to continue to that journey. In achieving this personal goal many people, supervisors, friends, family and University colleagues have been instrumental in contributing to the final product. The initial motivation and inspiration for me to start this study was given by Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick, Dr. Elaine Stratford, and my friend Alison Howman. For that challenge I thank you. I am deeply indebted to my three supervisors Professor Jamie Kirkpatrick, Dr. Elaine Stratford and Dr. Aidan Davison. Each in their individual, concerted and special way guided me to this omega point.

Travel restrictions are making it difficult for all of us to get out and about to observe the impacts directly. National parks and reserves here on the NSW south coast suffered severe destruction from the Currowan fire and will not be reopened for some time. In our own garden, we lost several isopogons to fire and many plants near ember attacks were badly damaged due to radiant heat.

Our two major articles cover several extensive trips that Margaret undertook with members of the Study Group, members of the Hakea Study Group and with Tim Darrington, Study Group member, who had travelled all the way from France to see how many of the Western Australian plants he had gotten to know in his garden and conservatory in France actually grew in their native habitat. As Margaret says in her article: “I managed to show him 91 different dryandras, 51 in flower. He couldn’t have come at a better time.” Because of widespread rains in many parts of WA during 2016, Margaret planned the various excursions she describes to try to find a number of those elusive dryandras which she had not been able to photograph in flower for years, due to WA’s long-running drought. Many of those she obtained will be added to the Dryandra Digital Archive, while I have included others to illustrate her’s and the additional article Tim wrote about their trips.

  • Vegetation and Flora of Blackboy Ridge Reserve, Shire of Chittering, Western Australia
    Vegetation and Flora of Blackboy Ridge Reserve, Shire of Chittering, Western Australia Gregory Keighery and Bronwen Keighery August 2013 Department of Parks and Wildlife Western Australian Conservation Science Centre Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia, 6983 Vegetation and Flora of Blackboy Ridge Reserve, Shire of Chittering, Western Australia By Gregory Keighery and Bronwen Keighery Department of Parks and Wildlife Western Australian Conservation Science Centre Locked Bag 104, Bentley Delivery Centre, Western Australia, 6983 This publication was prepared as a report for the Department of Parks and Wildlife and Shire of Chittering, initially part of a World Wildlife Bioblitz, held in the Reserve over 24 hours on October 23-24, 2010 at Blackboy Ridge Cover photograph: Wandoo woodland from quadrat BLACK 03, spring 2010. The Reserve is named for the Xanthorrhoea plants that are a feature of the Wandoo woodland understorey on the rises in the Reserve. This Xanthorrhoea is X. acanthostachya a relatively restricted species near its most northern location in the Reserve. The fire earlier in the year has resulted in the Xanthorrhoea plants flowering together. Other shrubs are either regrowing from seed or rootstocks and are currently at low density. Photographs © Bronwen Keighery. 2 SUMMARY Blackboy Ridge Reserve is a small 61 hectare reserve vested in the Shire of Chittering on the southern side of Chittering Road, about 20 kilometres south-east of Bindoon. Quadrat based survey work was performed in the Reserve on the 23rd October 2010 by a group of conservation volunteers as part of a Bioblitz in the Reserve organised by the World Wildlife Fund.
