Citizen Science in East Gippsland

Anyone keen to spend the football weekend in the forest might be interested in this citizen science event in far East Gippsland.

Here's a blurb taken from their website.

"Join us over the Grand Final long weekend for GECO's spring citizen science survey camp. Learn from the dedicated and passionate ecologists and activists at GECO whose citizen science campaign is saving forests from logging.

You'll gain skills to put into practice and get involved in the GECO citizen science campaign.

We've only just announced this at short notice as we have to postpone the planed Melbourne Cup Weekend Camp due to circumstances beyond our control. This camp will be small but were planning a large one in December for a week!"

This trip needs a leader, so if you're keen, send me an email at

There'll be a similar event in December so keep your eyes peeled.
