A Bidjigal Reserve Bushland History The bushland of Bidjigal Reserve and adjoining reserves Bidjigal is the new name for Excelsior Reserve and Darling Mills State Forest: part of a 300 hectare corridor of protected public bushland along Darling Mills Creek and its tributaries. One of Sydney's bushland treasures; it's home to 370 native plants and over 140 native animals, with a network of tracks providing many days of interesting exploration. This booklet, with colour photographs throughout, tells the story of the area's natural and cultural heritage, and provides a detailed map of walking tracks and features. We hope it will help local residents and visitors to the area enjoy and appreciate this wonderful, wild landscape. Wild Red Frog Design 02 9954 9094 The bushland of Bidjigal Reserve and adjoining reserves 1 place of rugged natural beauty, full of hidden treasures; a time capsule of ancient eco systems, aboriginal shelters, and colonial history: Bidjigal Reserve has much to offer us - from those who walk Aits tracks every day, to those who enjoy a view of its green expanse while driving by. With sheer cliffs, towering eucalypt forest, sparkling creeks and sheltered rainforest gullies, it’s an island of natural habitat in the middle of urban Sydney. Big enough to support a wide range of wildlife; the reserve is alive with noise, colour, and movement from birds, mammals, reptiles and insects. Most of the reserve has been public land since the earliest days of European settlement, and it’s now entering a new era with a new name, some changes in boundary and its own management trust. This booklet is about Bidjigal Reserve and the adjoining, Council managed, lands. It has been produced to help people understand and enjoy this wonderful patch of bush, and to find their way along its tracks. For practical purposes we have used the name Bidjigal to refer to the entire Darling Mills Creek bushland corridor. Rugged, rocky hillsides are typical of Bidjigal's sandstone country. 2 Place in the landscape Sydney is part of one of the world’s most amazing natural landscapes. We are fortunate to still have an abundance of wildlife, and people in the suburbs don’t always need to visit the bush to enjoy it because it comes to them in the form of colourful parrots, friendly possums - even our fascinating flying foxes. But this is only because we have retained wild places like Bidjigal Reserve. It’s part of a network of habitats across the region, including medium sized patches of bush at Pennant Hills Park, and Berowra Valley, and smaller pockets in parks and on Aboriginal connections private land. Large areas of National Park and The first Aboriginal people probably arrived uncleared private bush to the north, south in the Sydney region over 40,000 years ago. and west of Sydney complete the picture.

The signatures on the petition were mainly collected at two events that were held in Marrickville during April and May 2018. These events were the Anzac Day Reflection held on 25 April 2018 in Richardson’s Lookout – Marrickville Peace Park and the National Sorry Day Walk along the Cooks River via a number of Indigenous Interpretive Sites on 26 May 2018. The purpose of the petition is to creatively showcase the history and culture of the local Aboriginal community along the Cooks River and to publicly acknowledge the role of Pemulwuy as “father of local Aboriginal resistance”. The action petitioned for was expressed in the following terms: “We, the undersigned, are concerned citizens who urge Inner West Council in conjunction with Council’s Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Reference Group (A&TSIRG) to designate the walk between the Aboriginal Interpretive Sites along the Cooks River parks in Marrickville as the Pemulwuy Trail and produce an information leaflet to explain the sites and the Aboriginal connection to the Cooks River (River of Goolay’yari).” A total of 60 signatures have been collected on the petition attached.

Protocols are simply the ways in which you work with people, and communicate and collaborate with them appropriately. They are a guide to assist you with ways in which you can work, communicate and collaborate with the Indigenous community of Western Sydney. A wealth of Indigenous protocols documentation already exists (see Section 9), but to date the practice of following them is not widespread. Protocols are also standards of behaviour, respect and knowledge that need to be adopted. You might even think of them as a code of manners to observe, rather than a set of rules to obey.

(Strelitziaceae), a native of South Africa, is newly recorded as a sparingly naturalised weed for New South Wales and represents new family, generic and species records for the state. Descriptions, notes and identification key are provided for the family, genus and species. Introduction Strelitzia nicolai Regel & Körn. (Giant White Bird of Paradise or Natal Wild Banana; Strelitziaceae), a native of South Africa, is a common horticultural subject in eastern Australia. Recently a small colony of plants was discovered at Minnie Water (c. 60 km NNE of Coffs Harbour, North Coast, New South Wales). The colony is of note as some plants were 8 m tall (suggesting they had been there for some time) and that they were setting viable seed. Seedlings were found within this population and Milne and Luxton have observed that the species is being found in increasing numbers on council land and in National Parks of the area.

Five major areas were used to describe the family distributions: Eurasia, North America, South America, Africa including Madagascar, and Australasia including New Guinea, New Caledonia, and New Zealand. In order to investigate the possible correspondence with continental breakup, the tree with its terminal distributions was fitted to the geological area cladogram «Eurasia, North America), (Africa, (South America, Australasia») and to alternative area cladograms using the TreeFitter program.
