Acacias Tree Pruning
Sightings
A grateful thanks to JRA who eventually sorted out the erosion "gully" at the Bushbaby Park. It was completed in December 2009 and we have to thank Fernbrook immensly for allowing this to take place through the Fernbrook Property, thus saving our beautiful park. We have started to rehabilitate this section of the park, and thanks to Steve, Alfred, Gayle and the wonderful rains, it is happening quickly.
Happy Story
Glen from Sibiti found that a very wee babe, little finger size, had fallen from the thatch roof onto their bedroom floor quite late at night. He put the babe in a tissue box and placed it in the pathway to the nesting place was. At about 5am the next morning there were some cross chatters happening on the patio outside their bedroom. Mom Bushbaby was not really liking the idea of her babe in the tissue box, so Glen placed the babe on a ledge where the mother retrieved her babe in a matter of minutes. Thank you Glen for doing this, even though you had an anxious night of worrying about this little creature. A super happy story for the beginning of 2010!
Acacias Tree Pruning
As we have had such splendid rain, the corridor trees are growing at an alarming pace, and we are finding it very difficult to get to prune all the trees. A lot of the Acacias are in desperate need of a good pruning. Please would people who have these trees on their pavements, go out and give them some attention. If you need advice or help with pruning, please feel free to contact one of us.
Please let us know if you see bushbabies in and around your complex – We are desperate to get an accurate bushbaby count going and we need the input from the Craigavon Community – contact Gayle 0829402570 or Karen – 0824464093 or Paula - 0832120115
