Underpass is bigger than I thought. Should be a few more, at least two at Mona Vale Road West site. The planned wildlife overpass there would be less successful.
How will the Ringtails cross Mona Vale Rd East without being squashed? Join our PNHA walk to see the fauna underpass in Ingleside. Sunday April 26, limit 15 people. Email pnhainfo@gmail.com for details and to book. More PNHA Activities 2026 on our website. #nativefauna #roadkill #ringtails #RoadEcology

An underpass is way preferable to a high wildlife bridge.
Swamp Mahogany Eucalyptus robusta flowering now, and over next few months. Where? Old Barrenjoey Rd Avalon, Hitchcock Park, Warriewood Wetlands soon. Food for lorikeets, honeyeaters, fruit bats, insects. #pittwater #birdwatching #canopytrees #insects
