- Wildflower Blitz At Bateman Bushland Reserve

Bateman Street Bushland Reserve in Wantirna is one of Melbourne's largest and richest areas of Valley Heathy Forest (open forests with an abundance of native grasses and wildflowers). It supports a rich diversity of wildflowers and nine species of wattle. It is an endangered vegetation area and requires management and protection.
Monitoring the lifecycle and distribution of our local wildlife is crucial, but it is also important to record plant species. This assists in identifying environmental changes, enabling our officers to make informed decisions about the management and preservation of these areas.
This Biodiversity Month join our Bushland Management Officers at the reserve to monitor and record local indigenous wildflowers.
- Learn about citizen science and how to use the free iNaturalist app to make wildflower and nature observations
- Learn about Bateman Street Bushland Reserve
- Participate in the Great Southern BioBlitz (Friday 20 - Monday 23 September)
This event is also being delivered as part of Biodiversity Month 2024. See our website for more events on offer.
