We sometimes call these twilight strolls “Bat Walks” but we’ve never yet detected a bat. Still, we know they thrive in the Waitakere Ranges only 15km to the west, so you never know.

Do your bit for bat detection in inner west Tāmaki by wielding one of our handheld bat monitors as we follow Meola Creek (Waitītiko) from the point it emerges from under the Northwestern Motorway to just before Te Mahurehure Marae. We’ll be spotlighting in the stream along the way and will almost certainly see tuna (eels). Who knows what else we’ll find? Morepork have been heard in the area.

The event is FREE but numbers are limited. Please book here.

Join Pt Chev’s Second Sunday Weeders for this month’s visit to Eric Armishaw Reserve. Meet by the playground and we’ll head out to where the weeds are weediest.

Bring your favourite gardening gloves and secateurs if you have them, but we’ll also have spare gear you can borrow. And if you don’t have two hours to spare, but drop in for as long as you can manage.

Sometimes there is cake, often there is good chat, and always there are weeds to pull.
